Unless you can stroke it, 6’5 is a very bad height.

For a small forward its ok. Evan played the 4 and is no taller than Ron.

Evan was also a Swiss Army knife who could stroke it.

I wouldn’t describe Evan as someone that could “stroke it.” He was a career 30% three point shooter, and as an upperclassman, when he took 3/4 of his threes, he was 33%.

That too. Every loose ball in EVERY game. But played even better in the big game.

I had to come around on him, but I did. Before Chris Webber did even...
