Lual Acuil- if i'm thinking of the same guy- 6'7/8 african boy, who has some game but also some arrogance. Can play the 5 spot and solely the 5 spot. Good luck to him though!

Lual or Joe Acuil is about 6-9 or 6-10. Very raw kid from East Perth in WA. He has improved a lot over the last two years and looks to be a potential choice more than anything (think he is still 16 or something?) Would probably struggle to make the WA under 18 or 20 sides.
