Chance Westry / Portal from UAB

[Sherman20]

Ha. Well it looks like he’s played pretty damn good the past 5 games. Averaging 21 pts, 57% FG%, 8 assists, 4.2 REB and 2 steals.
That’s a lot of assists for a SG/SF. Terrible 3 point shooter though.

Might have been very different for Coach Autry if this version of Westry had occurred during his first year with us (23-24) and if JJ had recovered from his shoulder injury and recovered the jumpshot that made him a high school star. Wouldn’t have rectified some of his coaching weakness/inadequacies, but you can imagine a world in which those guys along with Maliq stay and grow. Oh well, hopefully on to better things for us in the very near future.

I had so much hope for what Chance could do here a couple of years ago. Is there any “chance” of a return?

I can’t handle another summer of “ Chance re aggravated an injury and hopes to be back soon”

Given his shooting woes I don't think he makes sense here, but happy he was able to put together a good healthy season.

With Mingo transferring might make a good fit to PSU.

No way. Too much of an injury risk.

 

[Cuse House]

Pass.

Pass. Glad he was able to perhaps turn some things around. I recall a couple insiders reference there were other issues with CW as well beyond injuries.

Getting players from the scratch and dent section of the portal is too risky. Some guys just can't stay healthy for one reason or another.

As long as no pickup games at the Archibold lol

 

[gilardino]

could be mutual interest is what I am hearing, don't shoot the messanger

Not knowing the story, but I thought the poster said that Westry had a lot on this plate that was hard for anyone to handle.

He was a GMAC recruit and Mac was there s first year at Syracuse. Problem was Chance was recovering from a medical problem (knees?).

Would be surprised (but not disappointed) if he returned.

This is my take. We were told by people close to the program that he was legitimately going through some major life stuff. Looks like he was able to fight through it and have a good season at UAB.
