Kentucky Wildcats coach John Calipari talks with Marc Stein about one of his several former players who have been successful in the NBA, Bam Adebayo.
"He created a position. He’s a point-center. Tell me the last one," Calipari said. "And I mean truly a point-center. Not a big guy who can pass. He can bounce it and get by you. He can make bang-bang plays like a point guard. He can do Eurosteps. And he’s still going to rebound and block shots."
