On Aboubakar Zaki: A great project at center postion. Has great size and an excellent wingspan, can be an intersting shot-blocking presence when he puts his mind to it. Has lot of things to improve yet, but for a guy who started playing organnized basketball only 3 years from now, he's ina a very good stage.
