If you don't think this kid is gonna run some sets from the point for us — you gotta check out some of his SJS film.

And keep in mind that this is a kid who didn't first pick up a basketball till his adolescent years. This kid has a great feel for the game. I don't think he's all that explosive an athlete like maybe Pope has billed him a little as — but he definitely knows how to get to the rim — yet also knows how to set up his teammates. His length, hands & quickness are really good.

We were VERY fortunate to have landed a kid like this so late in the game. Kudos to our staff for grinding hard with the slim pickings — but in properly prioritizing who they were attracting, too.
