    Excellent interview with India's most famous basketball player. NBA scouts, GM's and coaches must be salivating at the idea of Satnam returning to the NBA. His skill set and athletic ability measure off the charts. Standing 7 foot 2 and being so young, he decimated the D League to the tune of 0.07 blocks per game. I liken him to Rudy Gobert with that kind of shot blocking prowess. Plus 1.5 points and 1.4 rebounds? He was robbed on the MVP ballot. Since his return to India, the national team has been unstoppable winning all their matches by lopsided margins. He can really stretch the defense with his outside shot and he runs the court like a gazelle. So sad that the Indian Govt hasn't supported him. Rs. 50,00 each month to his family is an insult to this legend. The best is yet to come!
