So your question is "What makes you think a person with a major handicap isn't qualified to play basketball in Div. I?"

Sure. He's 6-4. I watched his highlight tape, I didn't see how missing a hand prevents him from riding the bench for a Division I basketball team. He can still catch, shoot, dunk, dribble, etc.

Haven't seen him play, what happens when they pressure him? He can't pick up the ball right?

Florida got Chris Chiozza out of White Station High School, Memphis. Lil dude. Can he make the jump? Most likely, as a third string. Ass equal stomped. Dec.17th.

Yeah, he can. He uses both arms when he shoots too. His biggest problem is gonna be going left.

Looks like he uses his short arm like anyone else.. it's just shorter.. dribbles/ passes etc .. I say give the boy a shot.. good for BD

I'll say this and then leave it alone. He can attempt to walk on anywhere, BD isn't doing anything special.

Looking at the video he certainly doesn't look like a D-1 basketball player to me, but luckily my opinion means nothing and I wish the kid all the luck in the world.
