Lattin Stats

Yikes! Lattin's stat line is almost unbelievable. It's clear he has a huge impact on every phase of the game. Not just this game, but every game. 13 steals is Mookie Blalock territory. How does a guy his size get 13 steals?

Very impressive! I can't wait to see him play next year.
 
He tweeted that he finally got contacts and can see to shoot!
 
I've heard that steals are one of the best stats to look at when seeing how well a guy will play at the next level. It's because most steals require athleticism and anticipation. Guys who are athletic with good anticipation tend to be able to contribute when the game gets faster at the next level.
 
Every one of those stat lines are impressive. Especially for a front court player. 25 points and 10 rebounds are great numbers. 13 steals are out of this world. I've never heard of anyone at any position getting 13 steals. He had to be a man among boys. 5 assists are great for a big man. It shows that he's not a "black hole" and kicks the ball out when he doesn't have a shot. 5 blocked shots shows he gives good help on defense along with good anticipation.

I can't wait to see him.
 
Has he played any AAU ball? Curious what he looked like against that kind of competition, if he has.
 
These numbers are more than good.

These are the Big XII leading statistics: Points 17.8 (Smart), Rebounding 9.4 (Spangler), Assists 5.89 (Staten), Steals 2.64 (Smart), Blocks 2.78 (Austin). Lattin pretty much out did the league leader in every category in a single game.

He is regularly posting triple doubles in high school plus he adds strong numbers in two other categories when he does that. This kid has great genetics with professional sports on both sides of his family.
 
How in the heck does he put up numbers like that? What kind of competition is he facing? I'm not sure Yi Jinglin put up stats like that against that chair

I posted this the other day. I'll repeat it. I asked one of the coaches what kind of competition Lattin was hanging these gaudy stats on. I was told that not every night, but, typically it would be comparable to 5A or 6A Oklahoma basketball.

As an example, the game in Houston the night before we played Texas A&M. Lattin hung similar stats. He was going up against a 6'10" kid that is an A&M signee.

The kid probably has the potential to be a program altering talent.

Goosebumps...
 
I tried to go through each game that was posted on Twitter and average up some season stats for him so far. Only 19 games were posted that I found and of the 19 there were only 11 games in which his steal, block, and assists were recorded so the numbers are probably not entirely accurate but it's a good ballpark.

With that being said through 19 games his stats are as follows:

PTS: 15.3
REB: 13.8
STL: 5
BLK: 6.7
AST: 5

Like I said probably not 100% accurate on some of the stats but it is as close as I could get with the numbers I found. Either way, those are great numbers.

came here to ask this very question... my hopes on this guy are sky high :OUbball-logo:

A shiver went up my spine as well when I read Gary's post.

By every account I've read, OU got a steal when they signed Khadeem. Most schools got in on him late because he was not on their radar after playing a year overseas.

This was posted when he signed with OU in November. I'll post it again to give everyone an insight into the kind of player we're getting:


OU Head Coach Lon Kruger on Khadeem Lattin:

"Khadeem's a high-energy guy who is long, rangy and athletic. You can say that about all three of our signees. He rebounds the ball well. Because of his attitude and work ethic, he's got a tremendous upside in terms of where he's going to go as a player. Right now he's thought of more of a shot-blocker and a defensive guy, but I think he has a ton of potential offensively."


Redemption Christian Home School Academy Head Coach Ed Chung on Khadeem Lattin:

"Oklahoma is getting a super athlete, and it's enhanced because he's 6-9. He's a hard worker -- very hard worker -- is very coachable and he's a winner. And he's a great kid. He's young but he's a gregarious kid. I love him. He's definitely a winner.

"As far as his strengths, he's a defensive guy right now. He's a Dennis Rodman type. Offensively, he's got to still develop. But his potential is unlimited. He can rebound, he can block shots and he can guard little guys. He's got quick feet, good hips. The best thing about it is that the things that he needs, Coach Kruger and his staff will be able to coach him up on."

Well done, Adried4!

I'm not sure if the stats you checked will confirm this, but it seems to me that he has been scoring more lately. I don't know if he's putting up more points against weaker competition or his increased scoring is because his offensive game is getting better?

Either way, his numbers are impressive. Almost 7 blocks per game means he's dominating the middle on defense. That stat line doesn't include the number of shots he changes. But I may be more impressed with his steals and assists. Most guys his size don't score, rebound and block shots the way he does, and still average 5 assists and 5 steals per game.
 
Ya it looks like 18 ppg in his last 5 games, can't speak to the level of competition though. Stats are much harder to come by for the other signees.
 
Does anyone think Lattin will make the Jordan or Micky D games this year?
 
I know Buford and Lattin were put up for it... I think Lattin has the best chance. Buford is a star though
