The Trail Blazers’ addition of Purdue big man Caleb Swanigan in the 2017 NBA Draft has all the makings of a potential steal, at least according to The Ringer’s Mark Titus. Back in January, Swanigan’s performance caused Titus to pen an effusive article about the Boilermakers’ star player.
Purdue’s Caleb Swanigan is the best big man in college basketball by a significant margin, and even if you already knew that, he’s still probably better than you realize.
Titus backs up his support of Swanigan by examining the statistical dominance that the big fella exerted through the first half of Purdue’s season.
