Nate Kingz, who is a great player. Down to 36.7% from 3 after being at 44.6% from 3 the year prior. There is a lot more to building a roster than adding the best front facing stat holders you can get. I honestly thought they put together a good roster last season, but this is next level right now on how to put together a roster. I’m quite pleased so far, let’s see how they round it out in the coming weeks. They will add more, but even though the stats don’t show it. Kiyan, Doty, Mahmutovic, and even Sadiq can shoot the ball. They will probably be adding one or two more scorers as well. Scorers are only as good as the team built around them. The biggest question at this hour is the center position. I’m not worried about guard and forward even as they continue to add players to those positions. These moves are raising the floor for this program. Coaching and development will raise the ceiling.

Really? I guess Morano can’t shoot?

Spend the money on bigs. Don’t overpay for guards that have only pretty shooting %’s

Saw a X post last night that insinuated the same. Don't know how I feel about that but its not warm and fuzzy.

Seemed more of a casual reference than heavy interest…
The X post said Syracuse is making him a top priority so I would say that is a bit more than casual, but the credibility of that account is also questionable. Also that tweet was not why I made my post
Take it for what it's worth cuz I haven't checked the AI sources.
"Studies of returning high-percentage shooters in college basketball frequently show that over 60–70% of players in the top 100 fail to match or exceed their previous season's elite three-point percentage".
This is why you do not pay top dollar for them. The odds show that they are just as likely to regress to the mean. Especially on the hill we've seen this over and over again. They have to be more than shooters. And don't give me the Carlos BS, one of Autry's major failings was bringing in a 5'11 170 pound guy to play in the ACC.
Dual is 6'5 205 all these guys we're bring in are tall, long and have some meat on them.
I'm not saying Dual is starting point either, I think he will fight for mins with some of the other guards we're still going to bring in,

I heard there was a secret visit that no one has heard the name of yet. Is that what we’re dealing with here?

I have a feeling this stat is AI, so I took a few minutes to check it out.
I went to barttorvik.com's player stats page and set the filters to 3P% greater than or equal to 38 and 3PA to greater than or equal to 70 and it returned 379 players.
If you change the 3P% to 37.5 to account for rounding up to 38% you get 431 players.
CONFIRMED! The stat is AI.

Not AI, got the info from the NCAA website for 3 point percentage leaders so I’m assuming they have higher qualifications for how many attempts. My apologies should have looked further into it. No real need to be rude about it though

A guy that has gone statistically backwards, but up levels, over his career. And a true nomad.
