Like Mo, Rudy has never been known for his offence but he has averaged 10 points in his career which is not the worse for an ‘old fashioned’ big man. In his career he has averaged 2.2 blocks a night. In the NBA, Gobert has proved himself to be a terrific shot blocker. Gobert has a 9’7 wingspan which is 3 inches shorter than Mo’s. Rudy Gobert has just been named in the NBA All-Defensive first team. Mo Bamba has been compared to Rudy Gobert on many occasions. I totally agree with T-Mac because I think that if Mo gets really good in the post, Dallas could slow down games and kick it to Bamba on most plays. Tracy McGrady said to Mo Bamba on “The Jump” that many bigs in this NBA “don’t take advantage of being down in the post”. Mo did shoot 27% from three in college so he can stretch the floor, however, I think Dallas could use Mo as an ‘old fashioned’ big to get players open on the perimeter. If Mo worked on a hook shot or a skyhook I think this would really be useful to him offensively. Bamba did average 12.9 points in college but I think Bamba needs to work on his offence to really make it in this modern NBA. In college, Mo Bamba’s wingspan and defensive plays got him very popular with NBA scouts and NBA fans alike. Mo Bamba averaged 3.7 blocks per game in college for the Texas Longhorns, which is the type of shot-blocking and defence that Dallas needs in their frontcourt. Mohamed Bamba stands at an extraordinary 7’0 tall and has a 7′ 10 wingspan. Us Mav fans were hoping for a higher pick but could we still be in for an All-Star or an NBA All-Defensive first team player? Mohamed Bamba On June 21, the Dallas Mavericks will pick 5th in the 2018 NBA Draft.
