Dave Bell Block Party vs Shaker Heights [Ohio State c/o 2014] - YouTube

Appears to be a lot more athletic than any of the BIGS we have right now. Def reminds me of Kenny Johnson with the way he uses both hands and keeps good space when he makes his blocks. Hopefully, he develops on the offensive end as well.

Runs the court really well for a big man. I think the Kenny Johnson comparison is a pretty good one, though KJ was definetly a project when he was a young Buckeye and David seems to be ahead of KJ as a JR in HS. I think Thad & Company found a real diamond in the rough in Mr. Bell.

Photo tweeted today by Bell's HS coach with Dave next to DLaud:

That puts him in the 6'9 6'10 Range legitimately knowing Dluad's size.

That puts him in the 6'9 6'10 Range legitimately knowing Dluad's size.

And he's got a huge wingspan...Oden-esque almost....

 

[wigmon]

DLaud's wingspan was actually bigger than Odens. His wingspan was 11" longer than his height without shoes. Its the largest height/wingspan difference in the DraftExpress database.

That puts him in the 6'9 6'10 Range legitimately knowing Dluad's size.

Originally I wondered if he'd grow into a true center's size (not that there are that many anymore)....this picture erased any doubts I had.

David Bell hasn't been coached very long. Shows flashes of potential. Good weight adding frame. Tries 2 make the right play.

David Bell needs to work on his hands, but a lot of his issues have to do with strength. Really like that he tries to make the right play.
