He's not strong enough to take any sort of contact and finish. He is consistently fading away from the basket or taking bad shots because he can't get com

pletely by his defender. Yes, he's trying to draw fouls there, but if he doesn't get the call, he miss 98% of the time.

Oshae kind of reminds me of Wes Johnson if he were forced to constantly drive and get his own shot. Nowhere near the shooter Wes was at this point and may be a tick behind in athleticism, but he's being forced to do so much more. OB doesn't have the game yet to be playing the type of role he's being forced to. He's not an iso guy, like the rest of his teammates, so there will be issues and growing pains and overall poor efficiency/shooting numbers. I can't blame him as he's playing his tail off and must be exhausted even though he doesn't show it. Props to him and the guards.

Cooney had similar stretches:
His January 2014 #'s - 25-75 FG (33%)
The final 7 regular season games 2014 and ACCT vs NC State: 20-79 FG (25.3%)
The first 11 games of his senior year, he was 33% from the field (44-131)
The final 14 regular season ACC games, he shot 29.2% from the field (49-168). He was 31.8% from the field in ACC play that year...

I'm sure we've seen other stretches like these from other players, as well.
