Not sure we can really say the jury is still out on a guy that’s played for 6 years…he’s a solid mid-major player, no doubt…but expecting a guy with career splits of <40% from the field, <30% from 3, to suddenly be an efficient scorer when facing a massive uptick in competition is silly.

Fair points. It is possible that the guy could improve his game through time, but injuries rarely make you better. I do think he can help and be a contributor but maybe "difference maker" is a stretch.
Ya, I don’t mean to bag on him…he’s a decent ball player, and sure, maybe he could’ve helped them beat a UC Davis, a UCSD, a Southern, an Eastern Washington…but that part of the schedule is past, and to hear the Fox/Knowlton company line that they’ve fed broadcasters, you’d think the impact he’d have is as if he’s a Mickey D’s AA and future 1st rounder…which he’s not.
