Tim Hardaway: I think Bol Bol is better than Victor Wembanyama
Tim Hardaway on Bol Bol and Victor Wembanyama comparisons: I think [Bol Bol] is better than Victor Wembanyama. Bol Bol has better physical talent and is more ready to play in the NBA right now than Victor is. …. Frank Vogel wanted him, he wanted him to be there and stay there. He wanted him as an anchor to block shots, throw lobs to and get easy buckets with.

Watching Bol Bol play can be a real roller coaster – or Bollercoaster, if you will. For @PHNX_Suns, I took a look at what Bol can provide for the Suns and where he’ll need to improve to carve out an actual role: bit.ly/3PXDhoY pic.twitter.com/gADNbVvPdn – 11:03 AM

There’s also the possibility they hold off until next summer if they’re looking for potential cap space again, because it would keep the cap hold off the books. Or if they want to see how his knee is doing. But that’s a risky move at this point after you’ve just drafted Wemby. – 6:25 PM

More on this storyline
Yossi Gozlan: The Phoenix Suns will reduce their tax penalty by approximately $18M by dumping Cameron Payne and replacing him with Bol Bol on a minimum salary. Strange move considering Payne’s salary was only $2M guaranteed before this month. Suns generate a $6.5M trade exception. The San Antonio Spurs have $5.2M left in cap space after acquiring Cameron Payne. They can reach $8.4M if they rescind Tre Jones’ qualifying offer before re-signing him, and up to $9.9M if they waive Lamar Stevens ($400K guaranteed), who becomes fully guaranteed tomorrow. -via Twitter @YossiGozlan / July 16, 2023
Shams Charania: In total from the Suns: – Bol Bol signed on a one-year fully guaranteed deal – Acquired three second-rounders from Orlando for a pick swap – Traded Payne, a second and cash to Spurs for a future second -via Twitter @ShamsCharania / July 16, 2023
Adrian Wojnarowski: ESPN Sources: Free agent F/C Bol Bol has agreed on a one-year deal with the Phoenix Suns. At 23, Bol had his best NBA season with Orlando: 9.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.1 blocks in 21.5 minutes. Another developing talent to join a deepened bench rotation. -via Twitter @wojespn / July 16, 2023
But if he had the choice of his next NBA home, Fournier would enjoy bringing his talents to the Spurs and playing under coach Gregg Popovich. Also, playing alongside fellow Frenchman Wembanyama would be an added bonus. “It’s not the Spurs of 2014 anymore but playing for [Popovich], and learning from him, it would be a pleasure and an honor, for sure,” Fournier said. “Being with Victor, looking at the Olympics, being able to start chemistry on the court, that would be great.” -via Kens5.com / July 19, 2023
