Rich Rivers, 6-11/280, C, Lincoln Trail College (Juco)

[Bird Friend]

Putting this here, 'cuz I'm not where he fits. Started at Mississippi Valley State, then to Lincoln Trail College. Finished juco last year, but didn't sign on with anyone for this season. Johnson is following, so not sure if this is a follow for the Birds or if Johnson has offered this kid a skill review . . . Unimpressive numbers from juco: 7.2 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 0.8 apg, 0.8 bpg. Likes shooting 3s, but only makes at 32%

If I was coaching a 6'11, 280lb player and he took a three, I would quickly place him on the bench.

What if he drained the shot?

If you're 6'11 you gotta be able to average more than 2.5 rebounds per game. Granted that's only in averaging 12 minutes per game but still.

That guy should be averaging a double/double at Lincoln Trail.

The minutes/game stat for JUCO is notoriously unreliable.
