Who the fuck is Bismack Biyombo and where did he come from?
The talk of last weekends World Nike Hoop Summit wasn't Austin Rivers or Cody Zeller. Instead an 18 year old 6'7 kid from the Congo stole the spotlight. Standing tall and confident in the lane, sending away layup & dunk attempts, and even throwing a few down; Bismack Biyombo formerly introduced himself to NBA scouts world-wide. This week, DraftExpress moved Biyombo into the top 10, going 6th to the Jazz. Chad Forde, ESPN, even suggests teams looking purely for upside will consider Biyombo with the #1 overall pick. Never before has a kid shot up the boards this late, and if your thinking this is another Ricky Rubio situation..."NBADraftExpress reports Bismack Biyombo has unilaterally terminated his contract with Fuenlabrada (European Club), following several breaches, his agent tells us."
I'm thinking 'Nobody Beats the Bis' or 'Return of the bisMACK'. This kid will be a fan favorite.
