Oregon Basketball: 3 goals for Bol Bol for the 2018-19 season

Oregon Basketball was blessed after a bad season. They will have one of the best recruiting classes in the nation going into this season head by Bol Bol.

Oregon basketball had a season to forget last year. They finished sixth in the Pac-12 last year and in the Pac-12 tournament they went relatively far but were kicked out in the semifinals against number two ranked USC in a 74-54 blowout.

This year after losing Troy Brown Jr. to the draft the Ducks will come back stronger than ever with the third-ranked recruiting class in the nation. This class should give the Oregon Ducks relevancy this year.

One of the pieces from the recruiting class will be Louis King who was ranked 20th in the nation amongst his recruiting class. The Ducks will get a wing player to replace Brown.

The prize in this class though is five-star and sixth-ranked in the recruiting class, Bol Bol. He is late great NBA legend Manute Bol’s son and the talent that he has displayed on the court in the high school ranks has him being one of the most exciting players in college basketball next year.

Bol Bol has size at 7’2 with the ability to put the ball on the floor. He has shown the ability to play in the post even with his slender physique and has a smooth jump shot that is hard to block with how tall he is.

With Bol Bol playing the center position this year he will lead one of the most talented frontcourts in the NCAA. So what should be expected of the young big man? Here are three goals in particular.
