Why is he worried about JB?
He must want to come in and play immediately.
Honestly, I think we need two Cs in this class, so we could take both of them and get they both get reps.

Seems to have good vision in finding his open team mates.

It probably sounds like sacrilege but I honestly would rather have this kid than Jordan Brown. Brown has been soft every time I've watched him and Lithuanian kids play a hard nosed style and  Kisunas is likely to stay at our program longer. Hopefully they somehow both commit but its seems unlikely.

Brown is an instant-impact type of recruit.
Kisunas seems like he is going to need to be groomed for at least a year before he will be ready.
Yes he is going to be in college longer, but Brown being another early-entry to the NBA only helps us and continues to remind the recruits that Miller will be able to develop you, and then get you off to the NBA.

He is a great screener.  Guy has a huge body for a kid his age.  If he can learn to do the little things Zeus did, like seal out lanes to create open layups for his teammates, set solid screens in the pick and roll, box out and all the little stuff, he would be worth the scholarship for sure IMO.  At worst we get a great guy for practices.  At best, over 4 or 5 years at AZ he develops a shot and a more consistent post game, and we end up with a quality player.  I agree with mvpreed that we need multiple centers in this class.  If anything, for the sake of practice.  Brown and Kisunas makes perfect sense, as Kisunas would not be a factor his freshman year, and it might even be prudent for him to redshirt, at least so he can learn to knock down free throws consistently(which I've heard is a major problem in his game).  If you look at other videos of him, he does show flashes of solid footwork and utilizing his big body well.
