With Richards and Plumlee cementing their roles, Ighodaro can go get legitimate playing time in Tempe. Would imagine Ighodaro gets recalled if either got hurt. Nurkic can be the third center on standby for a game-to-game basis.
He's been called up, not out.

That’s what I hoped to see. A legit nba player should dominate the g league.

Oso was reportedly available against the Timberwolves last night.
Wasn't far to go.
Not only reportedly, but he was on the bench in uniform.

I knew Oso was available, but I missed seeing him on the bench.
Stats for the season, 3.6pts and 3.3 rebs; very 2nd round like. It was exciting to see him early in the season but his flaws have become apparent.
I never did like his push shot, it was noted and advertised as good but its so meh. That's his only tool in his bag now. And his frame isn't meant for nba center rebounding, add in his lack of positioning and it becomes apparent that he's a bit of project for sure. I understand he's a 2nd round guy.

He still has promise in my opinion. He needs to put on some muscle and work on his game, that's all. Don't shoot threes or dribble behind your back with a nasty crossover. Work on your inside and middle range game. Traditional center skills.
i see a power forward

oso ighodaro finishes his first stint with 8 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block in just over 8 minutes.was 4-for-4 from the field with one turnover and was grabbing and going himself quite often.
I don't like that he's grabbing himself in public.

Oso Ighodaro grabbed his knee, which is usually not a good sign.

Yeah, I think the tweet Ronin posted was from a previous game. I was just making a joke. The good thing is I heard he returned to the game after this incident that you posted.

This is good to hear.
thought about starting an oso thread but this'll do just fine - to those who say oso has no place in the nba i say cray cray
the league is faster and shoots deeper but sharp shooters are becoming the dime a dozen - i call it the steph effect but i digress - point is there's literally a sharp shooter on every corner but even the best miss more than half the time
enter oso
you ever notice how some games we can't make a 3 to save our freakin lives? that is not a problem with ighodaro because he's slasher like freddy and jason and the great michael myers - they do their work up close and they don't miss - oso finishes like we wish ayton would have
we haven't even gotten to his defense yet - because if you take a rolling pin to ryan dunn and really stretch him out you get oso ighodaro - the motors on these freakin guys... the speed and the size both check out but it's the heart that really counts
the majority in here see both dunn and brooks as small forwards - oneale too - i think oso's only (sizable) comp is the rookie fleming and the euro transplant nhd - meaning i think we'll see a lot of oso at power forward and williams/maluach/richards at center
