At 6'6" he adds some height and rebounding ability to the mix. He also does not have a problem pulling the trigger, but since he shot 45% overall that's good especially since he shot 30% from the 3.

Will be interesting to see what he brings to the table. He’s got great stats but struggled against good teams. Like his all around play. Shooting seems to be a weakness.

Likely he was "the guy" putting up shots at the end of the clock. That skews shooting stats.

I read that he was first team OVC last year and scored 15 ppg. I know it’s not a major conference, but that ain’t a bad resume.

[Stikboy]

Awesome! Welcome aboard MJ!

Led his team in scoring, rebounding, assists, steals and blocks. 22 out of 26 games in double figures. Season high of 28 points. 5 games over 20 points. 3 double doubles.

That’s awesome thanks for the stats. Incredible use of the last scholarship.

He was also all-conference in the Ohio Valley last season.

The drama, the secrecy, is laughable! We’ll know before long if there is more to this story. I’m betting he picked OU to stay away from Musselman and to follow David Patrick.

I like his video. Anthony Bowie with better ball skills.
