Re: '22 PG Jamarques Lawrence (Nebraksa —> URI)
How good is this kid? Don’t know too much about him. Stats aren’t eye popping, but coming from the Big10 should say something. How does he slot in at Rhody? I think he fits this team well, in that his defensive numbers are very good. Nebraska played the 37th ranked schedule, according to Sports Ref...

Re: '22 PG Jamarques Lawrence (Nebraksa —> URI)
Interesting intel from Nebraska media up above. Based on the intel, by my count, we currently have 2 true PG’s (Hammond and Ways) and 2 that can play PG if necessary (Lawrence and Kort). Therefore, it appears we are in good shape at the PG position for at least the next few years - as long as we ca...

He made seven 3-point shots in two years, so it's really amusing to see like four of them in his scouting tape. He had 21 attempts in 42 games, so it's not like he's a Rory Stewart-style chucker from deep. The size is appealing on paper (6'8", 210), but it didn't really translate to his rebound...

Traore basically didn't play for two years at St. John's, under two different coaches, and he didn't really do much with what little he did play. I'm hoping we can do better, and that he's a pure back-up option or deep depth / upside play.

That would be perfect. He can go there, average 20 a game, and the team will win 10 games a year - but two of those will be against us when he goes off for 40 each time. It would be the absolutely perfect storm of frustration for us.
