Got the "yips" on his shot

In High School he was a deadly three point shooter. Got to college and couldn't hit the broadside of the barn.

Seems he just wanted a change of scenery. Ultimately he's just a bust (for BYU and Baylor)

He is a 3 and D player who hasn't been able to hit the 3. It's not enough

You're saying his own team at BYU criticized him? Do you have proof of that?

I'm pretty sure he's talking about fan criticism

Zip

3/14/23 2:13am
