I watched 6 of his games so far including the SP game. MSM did share responsibilities in initiating the offense to your point. His handle looks fine to me the only time he got in trouble is trying to do too much when it wasn’t necessary. A number of his  turnovers were bad hands by teammates and some not paying attention.

His handle and handling of PG responsibilities improved if you watch games from the beginning to the end of the year.

Defensively he actually impressed me more than expected. He has quick hands and moves well and is quick to recognize and communicate on the switch. His vision is good too and probably could have averaged high 4s assist wise based on some of the dropped passes I saw in the games I watched. He also has the ability to use his length to block shots and is solid on close outs. He’s technically in his third year due to losing most of his freshman year to injury.

There is room to improve here to maximize potential but absolutely some risk too. You can see a lot of what the staff sees for sure. His game is very Gbinije like to me having watched more games. Get him on campus and working with staff and current roster, get a summer tour going and it could work out well.

One last note- I hope we don’t rely on one guy bringing the ball up too- no more pounding it from the who is running the point. Get the ball moving and get into our offense quickly, get paint touches and let our PG make plays when necessary but not rely on iso ball to make those plays.
