Mobley is an excellent shot blocker, that much is clear. I wish that video showed him playing on the floor more. Assuming the Cavs re-sign Allen, Mobley would be playing the 4 here, which means covering stretches and playing out on the floor more. He looks very agile against college centers, but how will he fare against NBA PF’s?
That was The Bullshit Whisperer saying that, so I wouldn't take it seriously until someone else reports it. They can make him restricted by extending him a $2M qualifying offer, so they could match any NBA offer.Last report I heard he is headed back overseas and already has a nice contract waiting for his signature.
Also Wojo reported the Cavs are seriously looking at pursuing McDermont in FA
Something I could see as possible is the Cavs taking Mobley at 3, Barnes being taken at 5, then the Cavs trading Mobley for Barnes and 8. Whether that could actually happen obviously depends on 1) the Cavs really liking enough guys that they consider Barnes and 8 a good deal, and 2) Orlando being obsessed with Mobley. I have no idea if either of those things is true.

He's definitely 6'5+ in shoesI listen to this last night and the biggest thing I came away with is Jalen Green hasn't been measured in 2 years. Chad Ford said he measure in at 6'3.5 then and he said Jalen Green's agent is saying he is close to 6'6 now but they haven't got confirmation on any of his measurables.

Has there been any official measurements for Mobley recently? Is he really a legit 7-footer?
Yes.Has there been any official measurements for Mobley recently? Is he really a legit 7-footer?
I really love Mobley. He’s my number 1 pick this draft. His lack of strength currently causes him to get outperformed in the post but I’m not worried. His height increased about 8 inches in the past couple years and usually your weight doesn’t increase during this period. There are many big guys who get tall but they look skinny. Love his foot movement though. His passing is underrated and his shooting is gonna get better. Once he gets to the NBA, I believe he has the work ethic to even be better and his ceiling can be a star. Cannot wait til Thursday.
Not only is he a legit 7 footer, but he looks to be about 7’2” when comparing him to Steven Adams who is a true 7’0
