Quote Kessens, 21, is a native of Nyon, Switzerland, who played high school basketball for Lycee Europe Robert Schumann in France. He did not start playing basketball until he was 16. Title: Re: Forward Michael Kessens is transferring to Alabama from Longwood Post by: Marshal Dillon on May 04, 2013, 09:19:34 PM At 6'9" 205 lbs, he would still be considered a small forward, sort of like a James Worthy. Still, he sounds like he has some solid potential.

We have two years to beef him up to be ready of the SEC. He put up some big numbers for a freshman at any level of play.

His turnovers are a bit high but as you said, he's got a long time to learn the program and to improve his skills before he has to face the SEC. A little weight wouldn't hurt either. RTR!!

The difference is he has shown some potential against some pretty fair competition. The other two goofballs were just ordered from the back of some magazine.Quote Kessens, 21, is a native of Nyon, Switzerland, who played high school basketball for Lycee Europe Robert Schumann in France.
