McDermott's quote about Buddy

[deejay1]

“Last year, he was a shooter. This year, he’s a basketball player. There is so much more to his game. He’s gonna be wearing an NBA uniform next year. … It’s refreshing to see a guy stay for four years and then use that fourth year to his advantage to make sure he’s improved. Without question, Buddy has done that.”

Amazing the improvement he's shown with his handles and attacking the rim - almost don't recognize him as a player. Gonna pay off for him when he gets drafted in Round 1.

Buddy made the right decision by coming back for his senior season, and I'm glad he did! He's picking his spots to shoot the three now instead of forcing them up on occasion. His handles and his drives to the rim are light years better than they were last season. This time next year he will be making money in the NBA!

He still will occasionally make up his mind to charge the basket then lose the ball, take an impossible shot (like today when he hit the underside of the backboard) or charge into a crowd. You can see it coming.
