Whoahh! Didn't expect that. Leffew got too expensive I guess.

I'm disappointed. But he is a 89% free throw shooter to go with his 34% 3 pt shooting. Hopefully the defense is a plus.

I still think Lafeww is in play.

 

[dasher]

I still think Lafeww is in play.

Well, that would be great.

 

[Cusesky8214]

I still think Lafeww is in play.

I hope so. That would be best case scenario with those two running point.

 

[djcon57]

He's a point guard.

Good AST%. A negative offensive BPM for his career. Mediocre defensive stats.
Basically a slightly better shooter than Judah.

Played for Claxton so I'm sure he got some good PG tricks.

I don't know. Obviously doesn't bl0w me a way, but Leffew didn't either. As a facilitator, could help this team

 

[OptimusOtto]

Did I read he's a 2x all conference defender? Seems like a solid pickup and rotation guard

 

[phil77]

Hmmmmm

 

[RF2044]

High assist totals.

Great FT shooter.

Waterbug ball handler.

Passable three point shooter, but not elite.

Not a big scorer.

Extremely small [5-10, 165 pounds].

 

[CLTCuse]

I really hope we are still looking for a starting point guard.

 

[Jzsshuttles]

Love this pick up.. City kid that wants to play for the front of the jersey. Jose Alvarado 2.0

 

[phil77]

Would be super interesting if he came here to be a back-up PG instead of going some place to start.

He was.

We're dominating the CAA.

Doesnt add up

Whoahh! Didn't expect that. Leffew got too expensive I guess.

As I mentioned in one of the other threads this morning, I figured he visited because of all the Cuse guys he recently followed on IG.

 

[kidorange]

Doesnt add up

Yeah, especially with the timing

 

[phil77]

Doesnt add up

Yup the assumption has to be that Leffew told the staff he isn't coming here.

 

[jordoo]

Very solid player, my only concern is finishing in the paint at the ACC level. I also hope that we still get Dakota.

 

[Cusesky8214]

 

[Orangezoo]

Well 2 more roster spots are open and certainly had to be NIL money still available can’t imagine this was an expensive get

 

[Cuse1055]

Pure PG with Brooklyn/NYC grit and wants to be here, I’m happy.
