Udoka Azubuike is not small – by the way

Have you ever seen a brick wall that could play basketball in such a raw form, whose name is not Shaq? I have, and his name is Udoka Azubuike. A 7 foot, 280 pound brick wall, Azubuike very well may be the most interesting player on the Jayhawks’ squad this season.

Scoring 16 points, Udoka scorched the nets with four threes, and two jumpers around 15 feet to result in his total. Just kidding, of course his buckets were all around the rim, and a few from the line.

Azubuike was 7-9 from the field, and displayed his true weakness as he shot 33% from the free throw line (2-6). In all seriousness, Azubuike has the genetics to be the most dominant big man in the country. Would you like to defend him? Me neither.

The Jayhawks own a freak down low, and he doesn’t look like he is going to lose any ground, while developing his raw game-style.
