In an interview yesterday, he said he was a lot more exhausted with bringing the ball up the court. And with Carter Bryant playing a stifling defense, probably even more so. But he can do it. I think he had only 3 TOs for both games, and only one related to his handles. He's such a handful going to the basket using either hand to finish.
I think FG mentioned this earlier, but he's faster than I thought. It doesn't seem like it because he's got such a long stride, but he regularly beat guards and wings to the basket on the fast break. And he's largey unfazed by the media. He did interviews like a champ and answered the questions easily. I can't believe this guy is 18.
What really blows my mind is that the day he starts the NBA regular season should've been his freshman college basketball career.
He is so poised out there both on and off the court. It's jarring truly.
