TJ played a lot of PG last year.
While I agree he's best as a PG...he's also good off-ball and has shown ability to come off screens and make 3's. Since he's the only PG on the roster, he will play with the ball quite a bit.

Childs has no shot at NBA and former coaches should have used stats to show him

Childs knows he's not going to play in the NBA.

He should know his stats hurt his chances in Europe and elsewhere

HE reportedly had a 6 figure deal somewhere last season

If true, then it may be a good plan to leave early.

that's an interesting assertion, especially when stated dogmatically

because that's how you get the best European contract.

interesting. And you learned this where?

Because he's on no one's top 100 NBA prospects lists or mock draft results

I'm not questioning whether Yoeli will be in the NBA, it's fairly clear he won't

No NBA Combine invite, and only 2 team workouts should tell him not this year.

TJ has been playing out of position, hopefully Pope lets him play at the point and create

TJ needs to get a similar shot selection around the hoop

Like Tyler had.

Tyler's shot selection was about as bad as possible for advanced analytics. He was just that good

No. Yo has good hands. i could have explained that better.

1. Yoeli doesn't think he's playing in the NBA. 2. The coaches are smart enough to know that TJ

if that's true, he should come back, improve his europe stock. Get more $$$

Rose wasn't very interested in PPS, thus Childs took low quality

TJ is likely best PG in WCC. He's extremely efficient. Shot > 40% as a freshman

It's unfortunate for TJ that he has to follow in the footsteps of Marty & Tyler.

TJ’s offensive stats are misleading.

TJ's offensive rating was 117.3, which is nationally 31st best of people with at least 24% of possessions used

Call me a homer but I think TJ is one of the best PGs in the west.

Totally. I would take TJ over most of the returning PG's...

Hard to see how TJ doesn't have his best year. Better shooters among teammates

Defense is extremely hard to measure correctly by metrics
