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
