Is Orlando really 24? If so he will be a lot stronger than I thought. And give us some time at the 5.

If Chandler isn't cleared it'll be more than some.

Who said Orlando is 24?   He played on the 21 and under Dominican team this year.

Just looked up his age and he is 23.  Don't know how he played on  that team.  Not bad for us though.

At this point, who cares how old he is? Hes a Johnnie. Half these MEN playing college ball are probably older than Greg Oden and Jevon Thomas anyways

The "isn't a gifted player offensively" comment aside, that is a positive article. If he is a legit 6'9 and his athleticism is as advertised,  he will be a great addition.

It is interesting how he can't be gifted offensively yet will give the most impact.
