Mark Cuban always loves to make a splash in free agency. The exuberant Mavericks owner made a small splash in the Draft by picking Satnam Singh in the second round. Singh is the first Indian-born player to ever be drafted. He’s an enormous human being, standing at 7 feet 2 inches, but he also has a soft touch from outside. Singh’s lack of mobility may be his biggest obstacle in his basketball career.

Dirk Nowitzki is also somebody who struggles with his mobility nowadays. When he was asked about Singh, he had this funny quip to add.

The Mavs may have to set up an official race to settle this slow-footed debate. I’m sure plenty of people would tune in to watch the slowest 100-meter dash of all-time.
