Also, Googled Akpejori's name so I could copy and paste it (no way I was going to spell that right). Did not realize he has been a professional boxer since 2018 with an 15-1 record, and is also married to WNBA star/ESPN NBA analyst Chiney Ogwumike. Good for the big fella.
It's hard for most bigs to come in and contribute immediately. Obviously there are exceptions for the top guys, but you can just look at our history to see how that plays out: Tonye, Kenny K, Raphael Akpejiori, etc.
