Possible transfers

Dildy has started following Tyem Freeman on Twitter. Freeman is a 6'6" freshman guard from Indian Hills CC averaging 18.6 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 1.4 apg. Pretty impressive considering he only played 23 minutes per game, which would equate to 32.4 points per 40 minutes. He originally signed with Missouri State.

Taj Anderson is another name at IHCC to keep an eye on.

Agreed. Similar build and athleticism. Better basketball skill set and better rebounder.

His three point shot is questionably bad considering how many he took. But I assume Moser would figure out where his sweet spot is and put him in a position to hit a higher percentage.

28.6% for 6'6" is not bad and he shoots 76.4% from the ft line which is an improvement over Vic. He also doesn't foul a bunch.

I was more worried that he shot 29% on 70 three pointers. If he's shooting 70 in 20 games, that means he's shooting 3+ per game and only hitting 29%.

Our best player just went 27.7% over his two years here while shooting almost 5 a game and nobody blinked an eye.

Fair, but Reaves averaged 6 rebounds and 5 assists, shot 52% from 2 and 87% from the free throw line. Throw in that he was maybe the best lead guard in the pick and roll in the country this year, and I'll take an off shooting night.

Just stating that it's a weakness for Freeman, not saying it's a non-starter.

Oh, I would say plenty of eyes blinked on his shooting from deep. It came up often on this board.

Depends on where the 3pt line in Spain. How does the FIBA line differ from the college and NBA line?

Not sure but it isn’t as deep as the juco 3pt line. As you know, the juco 3 pt line extends an additional 3 feet outside the nba’s.
 
Why do I get flashbacks to Capel when I see Indian Hills being mentioned?

FYI, I am not comparing Capel to Moser. I just don't want to see some of the rosters we saw during the Capel Era.
 
lol, how many 23 year old, 5th year senior types actually significantly improve their 3 point shooting after moving on to pro ball?

I mean, it may go up a little just due to the fact that some shots have to go in, but I don't see it. Don't see him sticking in the NBA either. He MIGHT get lucky and get to hang on at the end of a bench, or in the G League for a few years, but no way he ever contributes meaningfully to an NBA team.

Unless your name is Demar Derozan (or maybe Ben Simmons), it's never too late to develop a 3-ball. Just ask Jason Kidd. There are so many guys like Lonzo Ball and Julius Randle that developed a 3-ball several years into their NBA career.

Good post. The list is long and distinguished. And those guys you mentioned didn’t shoot over 40% in their first couple years of college like reaves did as more of a spot shooter. Yea I know the line moved back. Range isn’t a problem for him, though.
 
He's shown he can shoot. Better off the catch than off the dribble.

He's an elite pick and roll guy, elite finisher, strong ball handler. Great court vision, exceptional free throw shooter, good size, strong rebounder, tough, and size and anticipation means he can defend well enough.

Goran Dragic, Cam Payne, Dejounte Murray ... all good comparisons.
