Landale had a strong start at the Portsmouth Invitational, as he was able to get 17 points and 13 rebounds to lead his team to a Day 1 win. The impressive thing is that he really seems to have improved his conditioning since college. He is an energetic, skilled big man that could end up being a second round pick on draft day.
