With two of the best transfer portal big men considering Durham as their next destination, we're now learning the asking price for one of them. Kansas center Flory Bidunga is reportedly wanting around $5 million, according to CBS Sports' Adam Finkelstein . While this isn't surprising considering the market, the top Duke target would be worth pursuing for his tremendous upside as a rim protector.
The native of Kinshasa, Congo, Africa averaged 13. 3 points and nine rebounds and 2. 6 blocks per game last season.
Bidunga would be an immediate boost for Jon Scheyer's team and replace the production of Patrick Ngongba, who's headed to the NBA. He's one of the best defenders in the country with versatility to slide around the court in a man-to-man defense. One of the most underrated reasons for trying to get the Naismith Defensive Player of the Year Finalist is taking a more physical approach compared to what was done at Kansas.
