So, while being 7 foot 7 made Jorge Gonzalez a basketball player and was even drafted by the Atlanta Hawks, in OTL he was better known in the US as a professional wrestler.
Was there any chance of him becoming successful at the NBA level, even as a Manute Bol / Shawn Bradley niche blocker? Every source I've seen on him, whether for basketball or wrestling, has said that he was ultimately just too clunky, for lack of a better word. Could that be fixed, and if so, how would it affect the Hawks/other teams he'd play for?
these are the only basketball stats I could find for him, in an Argentine league
