Camara seems to have a leg up on FRP Kris Murray in the early season.

It'll be interesting to see how Murray and Rupert will play when the Remix begins play
on November 10 for its likely they will get sent down to get PT

But we've had players that impressed with their high energy but it was a bit of a miarage (think Thomas Robinson).

The flip side of the poor boxscore stats is that he has the best +/- on the team. You're right that we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves though.

Camera gives me more Wes Matthews vibes than T Rob, gritty player that finds ways to impact the game. You can be high energy but not really get the game, but the game is slow for Camera and he is in the right places at the right times. He wont be a stat stuffer type player but the kind of glue guy that coaches love out there.

The moment doesn’t look too big for Camara … that moment being they’re not expected to win much. Camara — like all the young forwards — can use a couple years to handle the physical play. But when Scottie Barnes tried to ram into him, he ran into a wall. Dude seems strong.

All 4 have a legit shot at long careers. Are any of them eventual starters? Of quality? Maybe.

Interview with Toumani Camara:

Camara looks like one of those players that will relish a role and have no issues sticking to playing role, which the Blazers desperately need. He did a great job against Cade the other night.

I look forward to tracking his progress. I consider him already as good as Little...hopefully injuries aren't the same issue.

He may have just played his way into the starting line up tonight.
