He will be a freshman with 4 years of eligibility.

Our first player from Iceland. We continue to add to our world map - good for building a worldwide fanbase!

Welcome to BU, Almar!

Based on his highlights the kid looks like he should be playing for Indiana St. For you younger readers think late 70's.

More highlights-

He averaged 17.9 points, 10.7rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, shooting 41% for 3 at the FIBA U18 European Championship Division B last summer. The 2.4 assists is nice to see, too.
He visited Bradley last weekend and scrimmaged with the Bradley players. He is listed on the internet as various heights, 6'7". 6'8", and more recently 6'9". That is still a good size for a wing player, and the videos show he has good leaping ability, and can play above the rim, as well as dribble-drive and create his own shots from outside.

According to Verbal Commits InSu offered Atlason some time ago. Nice to get a portal win!

What I like about Almar is he is big but not stiff....very fluid....great get for the Braves...

I'm a fan. Love the size and mobility he brings and appears to be a solid shooter. Very much think he can learn from Malevy in his final year. Interested to see how/if he can contribute as a true freshman.

Yeah!!!! I was hoping we would get him

He has good range on his jump shot and gets it off quick

I like it! Welcome to BU Almar!

[Stryker]

Looks like a good get. He seems to have a nice shot, but has a longer windup for it. Hopefully he can be a skilled player in the MVC.

Huskers fans already want to poach him in a couple years .
