Class of 2019 PF Isaiah Stewart (NY/LaLumiereIN) to Washington

[SUFaninNJ]

Thank you. When you start spellchecking people for their use of "there, their, they're" I'll be happy to help..

Excellent. Always glad to have others joining in the fight.

I'm really enjoying the optimism I'm seeing from some of the posters. I have zero inside sources and no clue where Stewart may end up. Therefore, I will gleefully like any post that reports good news or even positive conjecture about Cuse being his final destination!

 

[SUskibum]

Yes, this would seem like an "either/or" situation.
Akok, on paper, is a better fit for our style.
But we almost never get big men like Stewart. If we could get him, wow.

What about Arinze and Big Rick? I think of those two as stockier and more skilled (and less athletic) than our “typical” bigs (to go along with DC III already mentioned)

I could be way off since I have no clue, just thinking of the body types

Ya it does seem like the guys we don’t thinkn are our “type” end up thriving

Optimism always beats pessimism.

What sport?

Soccer. Goalkeeper.

 

[supgs]

I'd say the other way around. We land QG and I have no complaints. Add one of Isaiah or Akok and GIDDY UP.

Ish, Akok, & QG ... 5,4,3 no reason that shouldnt happen. Add in our strong group of guards and frontcourt depth... we are seriously competing for the NC.

 

[EastCoast2]

He's 5'4" but after the accident, he had an 8 foot wingspan.

And a 10"... inseam.

In a perfect world yes.. this would be amazing! I'm not sure what the pitch is to Isaiah from our coaches but it has been posted that he might want to play the 4 and not the 5...and I dont think AA wants to play the 5 either. Not saying they wont ever or that they cant just what the word on the street is. So I'm not sure if this is realistic or not.

Stewart is a Draymond Green type talent... so MSt seems apparently logical. Yet, if he comes here, there will be sharpshooters to space the floor. Our zone resembles modern "positionless" basketball defense, he's close enuf to get home or the family to the game, lots of teammates who have winning experience together, the ACC, and record crowds in the Carrier Dome... as HOF coach JAB takes his final shots at another national championship.

Durant was DC type of player

Their skills aren't even remotely similar. Green is a point forward. Stewart isn't running point anything wherever he goes.

Green wasnt a point anything until he got to the "positionless" Warriors... he spent 3 or 4 years at MSt building his skills...

Stewart will be here one year.

Hawkeye, BJ, or Radar?

Stewart will be here one year.

Hopefully...

what I mean is that he's not big enuf to be a traditional NBA 5, and shows the potential to be a decent 3pt shooter. He's also not the traditional NBA 4. He's shorter than Tyler Lydon... And not at all an NBA 3. For him to have a long, lucrative career in the league... he should aspire to the skill set Draymond now holds. He's got that potential and plenty of time to add skills to his hi-energy motor, rebounding, and athleticism.

Thanks for that- great find. Only wish Girard had committed sooner and was at this dinner to reminisce with Isaiah and Buddy. Feel the love from the family. Being that he really wanted to play with Girard, that’s 2 and I think Coach could come up with 3 more players to help out. Here it is on a platter guys

From the same account - everyone sings Happy Birthday to Zay's dad

Traditional 5’s barely exist anymore. Carmelo played some 5 the other day.

LeBron and Kuzma have played some 5 for the Lakers.

OK, this is pretty awesome.

Good luck getting that vibe at: < insert all the other schools recruiting Zay here >

Not to burst bubbles, but is it NCAA-legal to give a cake to a recruit’s dad?

Louisville would have gotten him pie.

is it different than taking him out to dinner?
