Guys i have a question, i tried to do some research to find his shooting %. Anyone know what his shooting % is and maybe his 3pt %?

[tropicalshox]

I saw his junior year stats this morning but don't have them memorized. It was something like 50 percent from the field, 35 or 39 percent I believe from 3. Mid 70s from the line.

Edit. It was 50 percent, 35 percent, 78 percent respectively.

Seriously? With a usage rate as high as his likely is (considering he's gone for 50+ quite often and his team looks bad), that's pretty good. I don't know who's on his team, but judging by the tape and the fact that it's a 2A school, they should probably just give him the ball every time. His expected PPP would be much higher than anyone else on his team.

There's only one player ever to show constant returns to scale as his usage increases, and that's Steph Curry. See here: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/...he-revolution/

This kids just fits the bill... Can't describe it but he has a gift and has that killer winning mentality that this team might news after our old all Americans leave

Maybe so, but those numbers from a 6'5" kid playing 2A don't just jump off the page, do they?

I don't care about the numbers in this instance; I have 2 eyes... :)

But that shows that you DO indeed care about the numbers. 2 eyes are better than one. Just ask Dickie V. :)

Initially, they don't. But I feel context is very important with regards to evaluating him.

And his best games have come against higher division opponents. It's not like he's beating up on only 2A teams.
