Sam Harris just cut from SEABL team

I think his height certainly has an impact on his ability to play, but there are some people who even if they were smaller would still be awkward on the court, I think he is one of these people.

7 ft but average skills and low B-ball IQ! Has been a so-so everywhere he's played.

Signed with Hobart as he didn't want to play at Thunder as he'd have to play NWBU and his knees are iffy.

But at $200 a point (3 ppg) what are u going to do?

Here at 27 years , looked younger . 7foot 4in , looked taller , dunked on Johnson , clogged up the D.
Funny watching Hill trying to drive on him. Had no hope. Creek dunked on him.
Interesting to watch for a bit longer than the 3 minutes he played here in one season.

At 28 in a couple of weeks, he is no spring chicken, but almost needs a mentor to go through his entire game and physical aspects. I remember when he was at the Sixers there was talk about his running action which had a lot to do with his height and they were getting human movement experts involved.

He might just need to pop into Uni SA's human movement department and say "where can I improve?" When guys are that tall, there's a lot of stress on the anatomical parts that isn't normally there for someone of "normal" size. That can affect movement, co-ordination and flexibility to a certain degree.

You would think that someone that tall would be an absolute game winner under the right coach.

Perhaps put him in Celebrity Apprentice?
He will certainly stand out!

Harris has had plenty of opportunities...he went o a D1 college in the states and barely got any court time. He comes back to Oz and struggles at SEABL level.
