Vincent's Picks All-American

He's not an NBA player, but he's a big body that can finish and works hard on defense. 15-20 mins/game of that?...I'll take it.

I don't get the love affair of BYU Basketball coaches and Luke Worthington. He

He's one of the very few big / tall guys on the team. Do you want rebounds?

Do we want rebounds? He averaged less than 3 a game.

He's too slow and can't jump

Has Luke ever dunked a ball in a game I don't remember him doing it.

Define "love affair". One that gets him 15 minutes a game of playing time?

IMO, the coaches love affair with him primarily deals with what Luke does for the team leading up the game

Which seems to be borne out by the limited minutes he gets.

From everything I’ve heard, he’s the ultimate team player.

The kid is big and athletic with some decent moves and soft touch.

Athletic? Not for a D1 basketball player.

JuicyJam

You mean not for a 6'3" basketball player?

Mises

No. I do not.

He is not athletic.

He's a D1 post player who never dunks in game and botches open lay ups routinely

Dastrup was often lost on defense. And last year especially, was not a good

yet his defensive metrics were the best among the bigs in many if not most...

He’s a valuable role player with no ego. Every team needs guys like this.

Teammates like him on the floor. He makes them better, especially on defense.

Rosey I never disagree with you but on this one I do

i don't disagree with you. But his on court leadership is undervalued by some.

I'm still torn on this issue.

Loved Dastrup. Sad he left. Wasn't an easy call for him. Wish him the best.

I get it - Luke's tall, a big body, he takes fouls away from Yoeli. Dare I say..

Luke is a solid player

He knows how to block out. His shooting has improved slightly. Now 6-8 points/night isn't
