You said of Mfiondu Kabengele that he is one of the strongest centers you have worked with: is he a Euroleague player?
\n\u201cI confirm, he is one of the best centers I have coached and has a lot of room for improvement. For me, with his talent, he is a player who can return to the NBA.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old Canadian center is producing averages of 12.7 points and 9.7 rebounds per game in Eurocup, and 12.7 points with as many as 14 rebounds in LBA.<\/p>\n

The former Florida State is the top rebounder in both competitions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
