I grew up in Brooklyn watching guys like me get overlooked—until the numbers didn’t lie. Ulm’s Noa Essengue’s 2025 NBA Draft Combine stats? 6’10” barefoot, 203.9 lbs, 7’0¾” wingspan. That’s not just size—it’s silence before the storm. I’ve seen enough of these kids to be forgotten. Now? They’re the ones who own the room. This isn’t about being tall. It’s about how we turn data into destiny.
