One thing about Dual is that he seems to make more plays with being long and athletic as a guard more than great defensive position. I watched some the extended Vanderbilt highlights and he seems to roam a lot on defense. Obviously defending the Vandy guards is a tall order but he was out of position a number of times and several he was able to recover or make a play. Very interesting player. He had his hands down a lot on defense too for such a good defender so the fact he is so good in advanced metrics as a defender while needing to be a bit more fundamentally sound is impressive at least.

Offensively he’s good in the break and hard to guard taking it to the rim. Decent looking outside shot when open.. nothing textbook but it works. Unselfish and a distributor although some of his passes look too weak and soft to me even if Vandy didn’t get there hands on them.

Oh and he didn’t make any real concerted effort to attack the glass either. That definitely bothered me as being 6-5 200 with a 6-10 wingspan  there is no excuse not to use that advantage on the glass as a guard.
