And another reason he will not make the league.    6'6.75 w/out shoes.
Jamil 6'6 w/out shoes.

He's also the heaviest player there.

Can't wait to see his vertical #.

Measured in centimeters while everyone else is measured in inches.

Definitely has some "marbling" but the bone in ribeye is the tastiest of steaks.

For "Body Fat" it should just say "yes"

Drew Crawford is 6'5 without shoes?  Damn.  I think he's a bit slow to play in the league, but damn he has great size for a combo guard, considering how thick he is.

Id like to see Heavy D do the shuttle run.

How far is Blacksburg from Portsmouth?

Any Bert sightings?

Yeah, and unfortunately for him, speed and quickness is what matters most in the NBA... especially if he plans to guard anyone.

Davante's not fat.  He's just hot.

Nice Wilson and Gardner 1st teamers at the PIT but Buzz leads them to a 17-15 record.

Twitter word is that Gardner and Markel Starks were money together.  Can only imagine if he had a decent point guard and coach this year.

Jamil Wilson, 6-7, Small Forward, Marquette – 18 points, 2 rebounds, 2 blocks, 7-16 FG, 1-4 3P- Wilson made shots from different spots on the floor and a nice job showing his versatility defensively. He's got very good physical attributes and is likely to draw some added looks from NBA teams during the pre-draft process

Davante Gardner, 6-8, Center, Marquette – 18 points, 3 rebounds, 6-10 FG, 1-2 3P – Gardner simply knows how to score with his terrific feet, hands and touch. Even though he's undersized, not particularly athletic and somewhat limited as a rebounder and defender for the NBA level, he is very skilled and should make a strong career in Europe.

[SonofPianoMan]

Davante got the Portsmouth MVP... Well done young man...

He did....but the coach just chose to sit him on the bench for 30+ minutes a game and DNP him many others...Gardner said at Media Day Dawson was looking the best out of the freshman.  Would have been nice to have gotten him developed/experience for this year, while also giving Davante a chance to do some serious work his senior season.

[WarriorFan]

I like the 1-2 3 pointers...  the kid can really shoot.  If he had the green light on 3's this year rather than the ejection seat, it would have been a different year.   Yeah, I know you stat junkies are going to cite some low percentage, but that's because he knew if he didn't make it he'd get benched, so he wasn't shooting them with confidence.

Without teams sagging to clog the lane, Gardner would have been a BE POY candidate and we would have lived up to preseason hype. I felt the worst for Gardner this year, he didn't get a chance to show off his unique offensive skill set.
