Biography

A scrawny, nerdish type off the court (who wears thick, black rimmed glasses ala Weezer), this defensive powerhouse protects the basket with ferocity. It's hard to get a peep out of him either on or off the court, but what you will get is 4.7 blocks per game to go along with 14 rebounds. Not bogged down with the meatier frames of most centers 7 1/2 feet or taller, Ferramin is swift footed and fast, allowing him to do more than just plant himself by the rim and wait for opponents to drive into the paint. His strongest asset is his superb timing and his help defense, which often seems to come out of nowhere given the fact that he could be 10 feet away and out of the play one second when a player goes up for a shot and the next second he's flying through to block it. He plays with a lot of energy, but can get a bit timid when faced with more aggressive opposition, a "nice guy" factor he has to overcome. His shot isn't great, but it is improving, and he shows signs of being able to hit turnarounds and mid range jumpers from 17 feet a year or two in the future. Add that to his already blossoming defensive game and his ability to catch the alley-oop on the other end and the possibilities are limitless for this mountain of mustelid.
