It’s a similarity. Or I could have used code words like scrappy or high energy if that would be more comforting to you.
Name one similarity? Can’t handle, can’t pass, no low post game
Niang is a VERY common Nigerian surname. For those who don't know he's half black, if look up his dad, I think you will be suprised.Niang is biracial.
Comparing anyone to Niang is about the toughest comp you can attempt. He is and has always been about as unique a basketball talent and individual as you're gonna find.White, good shooter, lessor nba athleticism , slow footed for the nba. That’s 4. Again I don’t think sandfort can be a georges Niang, but if he wants a chance that’s how he has to do it.
Can't guard a fence post. About the only opportunity he'll have is as a shooting specialistWhite, good shooter, lessor nba athleticism , slow footed for the nba. That’s 4. Again I don’t think sandfort can be a georges Niang, but if he wants a chance that’s how he has to do it.
This. He is more of a spot up shooter in the NBA than he ever was in college. He was straight up dangerous when he got down hill at ISU. Sandfort doesn't have even one iota of that type of skillset.Comparing anyone to Niang is about the toughest comp you can attempt.

All the more reason to absolutely love Georges "The Minivan" Niang.
Sandfort is terrible off the bounce.This. He is more of a spot up shooter in the NBA than he ever was in college. He was straight up dangerous when he got down hill at ISU. Sandfort doesn't have even one iota of that type of skillset.
Oh, horrendous. Not even in the same stratosphere as Georges in that regard. I would be willing to bet even if Sandfort stays in and does get drafted, he is never more than a 2-way player in the league. His career trajectory would be similar to Joe Wieskamp in my opinion, who I think is actually a lot better player than Sandfort also.Sandfort is terrible off the bounce.
If you're going to compare someone to arguably the most unconventional pro basketball player of the decade, you might wanna start by getting his race right.White, good shooter, lessor nba athleticism , slow footed for the nba. That’s 4. Again I don’t think sandfort can be a georges Niang, but if he wants a chance that’s how he has to do it.

Well that’s a condemnation of this year’s draft then.Joe is a way better player
IIRC his dad was in the merchant marine (or USN?) and was short! Like <6ft. Although I could be misremembering, its been a while. Georges towered over him.Niang is a VERY common Nigerian surname. For those who don't know he's half black, if look up his dad, I think you will be suprised.
I think Wieskamp was a little better defender but not much but I think Sandfort is a more dynamic shooter and better in other areas than Wieskamp.Sandfort is really not draftable…… but I suppose some where in the last half dozen picks someone might take a chance. He’s not as a complete player like Joe w, without him Sukeyes are going to be unwatchable and likely a bottom 2 or 3 team in a terrible conference
Joe had a little bit more of a handle as I recall and could get downhill and score at the rack. And he was a better athlete. I am not sure I've seen Sandfort ever take more than 2 dribblesI think Wieskamp was a little better defender but not much but I think Sandfort is a more dynamic shooter and better in other areas than Wieskamp.
Word has it this year's draft crop is awful. Might be a good idea for him to take advantage of that.Sandfort is really not draftable…… but I suppose some where in the last half dozen picks someone might take a chance.

Awful and sandfort…. 2 words that go together.Word has it this year's draft crop is awful. Might be a good idea for him to take advantage of that.
