The problem with that is that then they are out shooting threes...

instead of in the post getting offensive rebounds. It’s nice that a big guy can do that stuff but I hate it when I see them out there launching and no one left to rebound their miss.

wow @stadium, whoever they are, are cleaning up on the transfer announcements

@stadium is a fantastic follow.

Mostly because it's UVU and they cover the WAC /small conferences as a niche

Stadium has contracts to cover the ACC, Big 12, CUSA, MWC, Patriot and WCC.

How did he get to be WAC Fr POY with this stat line? 4.6 pts, 2.6 rbs, FG% = 41, 3 pt FG% = 38%, 31 TOs, 17 asts

SingleStrapBackpack

4/24/19 5:36pm

I'm assumming he came on strong at the end of the season?

TripleCrownCoug

4/24/19 5:38pm

I think he had a very nice conference season. Started to really play well during conference

cougarmanguy

4/24/19 5:39pm

His numbers are very similar to Gavin Baxter's. Maybe a similar trajectory.

TripleCrownCoug

4/24/19 5:39pm

Except for FG%, but I think Lowell shoots more 3's.

TripleCrownCoug

4/24/19 5:41pm

Very good three point shooting big

cougarmanguy

4/24/19 5:42pm

Yeah, that's the one stat that caught my eye. Someone that big who's a threat from 3 pt range can really space the floor

SingleStrapBackpack

4/24/19 5:44pm

Also, he made 41 threes so the sample size is large enough to be meaningful

SingleStrapBackpack

4/24/19 5:46pm

The problem with that is that then they are out shooting threes...

CoachSpeak

4/24/19 5:53pm

I don't think you want to do it all the time but it's a fantastic option to have in the toolbox

SingleStrapBackpack

4/24/19 6:07pm

But the way to break a zone is make the players rotate and cash in open threes

puntersarepeople

4/24/19 6:21pm

Spacing the floor is a great thing. You don’t need to be a big guy to rebound. Especially considering you are

YIsForBrigham

4/24/19 6:22pm

That’s fine but he shot over 100 threes and only 10 free throws...

CoachSpeak

4/24/19 6:30pm

It’s not a justification. He will be a big help

cougarmanguy

4/24/19 6:33pm

All Noah Hartsock really did was shoot

puntersarepeople

4/24/19 6:34pm

Not his senior year - he was pretty much automatic in the post that year

Coop

4/24/19 6:42pm

Early he was mainly a shooter

puntersarepeople

4/24/19 6:58pm

That's what Baxter is for. High energy guy who can go get those

Lip Gallagher

4/24/19 7:03pm

I’m to lazy to check but maybe his stats in conference games are better?

CoachSpeak

4/24/19 5:40pm

Maybe that's it – I'm not knocking the kid. I just have zero knowledge of him other than his stats and height

SingleStrapBackpack

4/24/19 5:43pm

That’s more than I know about him...

CoachSpeak

4/24/19 5:51pm

Pope knows him best

CoachSpeak

4/24/19 6:04pm

Wasn't he a 4* recruit out of HS though? I thought I read that somewhere.

SingleStrapBackpack

4/24/19 6:09pm

4* on Scout, 3* on Rivals

TripleCrownCoug

Here are his high school highlights

donnerstag

4/24/19 6:15pm

Pretty impressed with the highlight video. He can dribble and seems to have a

Has a nice looking shot, but I didn't see above the rim player. He can dunk if

Lance71

4/24/19 10:31pm

He had a dunk at UVU coming underneath the basket

puntersarepeople

4/25/19 6:50am

I don’t expect a ton. I think he’s adding a solid guy because he needs insurance

puntersarepeople

4/24/19 6:04pm

He was only a freshman.

Lip Gallagher

4/24/19 7:11pm

Solid. Just not gonna be an Allstar player unless he really improves

puntersarepeople

4/24/19 8:20pm

Who said anything about that?

Lip Gallagher

4/24/19 8:32pm

You’re last paragraph is spot on

I saw him play once and was not super impressed.

StalwartBraveTrue

As usual the excitement is more than it probably should be...

CoachSpeak

Isaac Johnson was a five, meh shooter. Lowell is a four and a very good shooter

puntersarepeople

Not to rain on peoples parade, but I'm going to rain on your parade.

StalwartBraveTrue

I was so disappointed when he got hurt

puntersarepeople

What is the younger brothers name?

puntersarepeople

4 star recruit went to UVU? What is the story?

WizeGuise

It's a short story.

I didn't realize UVU was in the WAC. The things ya learn on cb.

Watch the video, he really meets the “eye test”

Beetdiggercoug

Maybe no other Freshman players played last year in the WAC ???

BYU4eVeR

HIs highlights seem legit. Big man, good dribble, drive, and spot up shot.
