Obanor averaged 18.7 points and 9.6 rebounds as a junior at Oral Roberts. He would be a huge get if Lloyd can land him.

This kid is going to be a game-changer to any team that lands him. Let's just hope luck is on our side. A PF that puts up damn near 50/40/90 in volume and crashes the glass? Come on down!

We should be the first to start selling Obanor posters. If sales are brisk, we can transfer the money into his brand-spanking new, personalized NIL account. Let's hop to it!

Now that's a transfer worth pursuing. He really made an impact during the postseason run.

A little sad, but I would consider this a Big Land for the Big L. My how the mighty have fallen, but beggars can't be choosers.

What's so sad?  Obanor has more talent that any Miller transfer, sans TJ.

Ryan Anderson was talented but couldn't play a lick of defense. Tollefsen, Akinjo, Lyons, Gettings, Jeter, Luther and Peters were all brought in to suck up minutes. Akinjo was a big contributor but had a miserable shooting percentage.

I am a huge miller fan...but dealing with transfers was his worst characteristic. He recruited selfish players that had no chemistry with the original roster and he unnecessarily gave them extensive minutes.

Lloyd is filling a void that is necessary. We only have 3 front court players on the roster.

I am sure this list is going to go up.
My question now is someone is going to end up being the odd man out.
Koloko/Ballo at C, Tubelis is the only PF on the roster, but does he come to Arizona if he is not told he is going to be a starter?

I would love to have obanor  come on down, I hope we get a visit.
We desperately  need a big  I can't see us with just koloko an azulous .

No Arizona on his final list.

Makes sense. I assume we'll be facing him in Champaign if Cockburn opts to go elsewhere.

Similar to the other available frontcourt transfers, we aren't an ideal destination for a PF searching for 30+ minutes. We just need a backup to Tubelis...
