He was so young in this interview though. I mean imagine all that pressure of being touted as being “the next greatest, most physically dominant specimen” coming out of college, at 7’1 and 294 lbs, and being compared to Wilt and Kareem? Especially only at 20 years old. That must’ve been a lot for him but not only did he rise to the expectations, he greatly exceeded them.
