The Barn Hoops Podcast | TOWERING: Auburn's Size Is LEGIT, Kessler Cashes In
Description
Auburn Basketball continues to add size and versatility, and the newest arrivals are finally on campus. This episode of The Barn Hoops Podcast breaks down Coach Steven Pearl’s comments on international newcomers Narcisse Ngoy and Mantas Rubstavicius, what stood out about their first days in Auburn, and why their length and physical tools could immediately change the look of the Tigers. We discuss how their height fits Pearl’s vision for the program and what fans should realistically expect as both players begin the transition to SEC basketball.
Then, we shift to Auburn in the pros after former Tiger Walker Kessler officially joined the Los Angeles Lakers on a four-year, $130 million sign-and-trade deal. We look at what the move means for Kessler’s career, why his fit alongside the Lakers' new core is intriguing, and what his continued NBA success says about Auburn’s ability to develop elite frontcourt talent for the next level.
