Yes, true, but it's going to be hard for someone with his slight frame to survive a full healthy season playing against the big boys of the NBA. Injuries are bound to happen to him with his body type.
I wouldn't be surprised if Chet winds up as one of those injury plagued big men like Sam Bowie and Marvin Bagley (also former #2 picks) and Porzingas.

Chet was always offering something too intriguing to pass up while being whatever the opposite of "can't miss pick" is. I am just glad he was long off the board when we picked.
There's no way they weren't still 100% all in on the tank from game 1. I am convinced that any of the bottom feeders that didn't change coaches this offseason are all in on the Victor/Scoot sweepstakes.
Although I wonder if the decision was made easier for them knowing they were 100% in on the tank.

I believe his size 100% played into this injury... but is anyone really surprised by this? His size and frame was always going to be a problem in the NBA. Brandon Ingram got away with it because he played the wing position. Chet will not get the same benefit playing center. On a night to night basis, he''ll have to defend a bunch of guys who all over anywhere from 30-80lbs on him. On top of that, every player on the court is going to attack the rim against him.
His body is not made for durability. Some might say it's a freak injury, but everyone knew an injury was bound to happen.. I don't think anyone expected it to be from a pro-am though.
I wonder if OKC is going to regret not drafting Ivey. You couldn't really see this coming (right away), but based on everything we've heard, I think Ivey was a close pick for them at #2.
