Just saw this blurb on ESPN by Chad Ford:
______
One problem continues to be Oden's right wrist. Oden broke his wrist during his senior season of high school and played with a brace on his wrist for much of his freshman season at Ohio State. According to a league source who has read the report, the concern was over the flexibility of the wrist. Apparently Oden still doesn't have full range of motion.
______
I'm sure the front office will be prudent enough to do all the necessary medical checkups before they make the pick. So far they haven't mentioned any concerns- but then again they have no obligation to do so. |

| oden will be all right. shaq doesnt have full range of motion in his wrists either because when he was young, he fell out of a tree and broke both of his wrists, which is why he was such a poor free throw shooter and that didnt stop him from being dominant. not to say that oden will be as dominant as shaq but i can see him being like duncan but even a better defender than him. |

| Oden needs to develop. I meant the kids 19 he will have time to get better and use how to use his height because sometimes he's a little clumsy |
