Born in 1996 so I'm guessing 2014 or 2015

Tsalmpouris is a 2014 recruit, which means I have very little time to learn how to spell his name.

 

[Dandy]

He's a 2014 guy.

I'm willing to bet we are the only team ever to have a Georges and a Giorgos on a roster at the same time.

Kid can shoot and play down low. Him, Georges, Hogue, Mckay, Nader. Thats a nice front court :smile:

 

[gocubs2118]

Nice consolation prize if we don't get the kid from Ukraine but maybe this is a way to entice him to come? Long shot but you never know.

 

[Clonefan32]

I know nothing about how these foreign prospects work out eligibility wise. Will he have 4 years?

 

[Daserop]

that boy needs to get some muscle on him. Also, how in the hell do you pronounce that name.

 

[jcisuclones]

Fingers crossed he clears waivers!
