Joshua Ojianwuna

Draft Notes

Joshua Ojianwuna is a high energy big man who does all the dirty work and brings great effort on the court. He’s not yet a polished offensive player but he does everything you want a center to do including defending in the lane, rebounding at a high level and running the floor hard.

Ojianwuna has tremendous size and length and can really play above the rim.

Born in Nigeria, Ojianwuna has been playing in Australia, en route to Baylor.
