[Highlights] All 222 field goals made by the rookie Ryan Kalkbrenner in the 2025-26 NBA season, including play-in.
He scored 529 points on 222⁄291 FG (76.3%), 0/5 3PT, 85⁄118 FT (72.0%) in 1,509 minutes played over 71 games.
He lost his starting job to Moose halfway into the season, hopefully he adapts to NBA physicality and speed by his sophomore season.
This guy is a walking double double and a bucket from 4 feet away. Teach him to shoot 3s and you got yourself a serviceable big.
He got that Plumlee brother in him just not as yolked yet
It’s insane how much more mobile 7 footers are nowadays compared to just 15 years ago.
Mini rant incoming…
Whenever people want to compare Ben Wallace to modern day bigs and use “he was more mobile than them so he could defend better” this is my thought. Bigs 20 years ago were big stiff guys who needed to be able to wrestle Shaq in the paint, so compared to his era Ben Wallace was a switchable freak of nature. Compare him to modern bigs like Rudy, Bam or AD, and he is probably pretty average in terms of mobility. The switch everything that most teams use is because so many bigs are just athletic freaks these days.
Ben Wallace was 6’7
