The 7'0 265 lb big man moves well, good hands, and fundamentally sound prospect.. and only going to get better. Originally from France and the U21 national team.

Since moving to the United States on Aug. 24, Winston-Salem (NC) Christian big Christ Essandoko has been reeling in the college offers. The 6-foot-11, 265-pound center from Paris, France, has recently received offers from Oral Roberts (Aug. 26) North Carolina A&T (Sept. 9) and San Diego State (Sept. 15). He broke down each school for ZAGSBLOG Tuesday www.zagsblog.com/2020/09/15/class-of-2022-big-christ-essandoko-up-to-three-offers/Oral Roberts: “I’ve been talking with them since the lockdown in France. When I came [to the United States] they called my coach to offer me a scholarship. ” North Carolina A&T: “My coach tells me that they are one of the best HBCU’s in the country.” San Diego State: “I know they are a good program. They were 30-2 before COVID [ended the season]. Also, Kawhi Leonard played for them.”Essandoko has been living by himself since the age of 14 and says the transition to the United States has gone well. “I know how to live without my parents,” he said. “The coaching staff, the school, my teammates and everyone is cool with me. My english is good so I don’t have problems with that.” Outside of his three offers, Essandoko is also receiving interest from Wake Forest, Tulsa, Virginia Tech, Saint Mary’s, South Florida, Missouri State, New Mexico, Ohio University and Cincinnati.
“Christ Essandoko is a really good player and even better kid,” Winston-Salem Christian head coach Antonio Lowe said by text. “His recruitment is starting to pick up and it’s only a matter of time before it takes completely off. “Christ will be a high priority for college coaches across the country. He is a 6’11/7’0 big that’s mobile and skilled and has a chance to be one of the best players I’ve coached.”

His prep HC is pretty connected in N.C. and VA AAU. He is /or was the U17 HC for Team Loaded that produced NBAers: Dennis Smith Jr, Bam Adebayo, & Frank Mason III with many other on scholarships in P6 MBB schools.

This is the kid I would like us to sign. Sure seems like it is a long time in getting a player to commit. After last year a question needs to be asked, are we just slow because of COVID 19 or are we chasing higher Rated players. It seems like we are casting a pretty large net. Time to start landing a recruit or two.

Nice write up on Essandoko today
"Christ Essandoko, a big, smart, strong, supremely skilled big man with size, soft hands, and incredible offensive polish. Essandoko is a lethal post-up threat with the ability to overwhelm opponents with his deep arsenal of moves, finishing ability, and pristine footwork around the basket."

This is one of the two players that I hope Dutcher is actively making him a priority. Get Christ E. and we are good for several years.

Well, we once had a Pope so it would be a step up to land his boss.
