you’re going to be every disappointed with his rebounding. i hope he can bounce back and give 10-15min of production, i seriously doubt it though

His rebounding was very good, don’t look at just rebounds per game he barely got minutes

He’s a good rebounder, career 17.5 TRB%

Sandro is great offensively so far, he’s just not big enough to play centre defensively.

Sandro has been great, just need someone with more size for some matchups + he’s the only healthy center on the roster so we desperately need depth.

theflyingsamurai | Canada

Too small to guard 7foot starting centers for long minutes. Has shined vs bench units.

links135

13 | 12 hours ago

Basically if Yak is injured and Sandro starts, there isn’t another center to play backup at all, especially bad if CMB is sick or injured as he’s often been, whereas Sandro is preferably like a shock trooper off the bench and in certain matchups, Mo could start or at least with big matchups, you have more options to throw than 6”7 Mogbo.

Sandro may be the best free agent we’ve ever signed tho.

The idea of Mo Bamba is much better than the player of Mo Bamba.
