How would you compare him to Rey? They might be playing together at Tulsa.Big body with long arms but does not have great athleticism.
Looks like he has nice touch shooting the ball and finishing around the rim.
Better or worse than Duce's? I saw Matt over commit a lot on the high screens. But any defensive liability should be made up by his offense and the fact he can make his free throws.I would be worried about his defense
Offensively he seems to have a nice touch around the rim.Better or worse than Duce's? I saw Matt over commit a lot on the high screens. But any defensive liability should be made up by his offense and the fact he can make his free throws.
I'm for an upgrade. BUT, just a reminder, Dusan was #5 in rebounding in the Valley, and #5 in FG % (ahead of Krutwig in both categories). Abdou was #2 in the MVC in blocked shots.Offensively he seems to have a nice touch around the rim.
Defensively he has slow feet and agree he over commits on screens. Reminds me how Abdou use to over play them.
Not much of a vertical jump and we will see if D1 taller and more athletic players pose a problem. There are players that just have that knack around the hoop even if there are not the most gifted athlete. He seems to have some of that.
BTW - we need to upgrade from Dusan and Abdou.
