Ok??? Be happy someone decent actually wants to come here after being a dumpster fire barely a month ago.

Losing JCL and adding this guy is about a wash in my mind. No net addition IMO. But better than a net negative for sure!
An extra year and new blood with a chance to mold new habits is the positive imo
2 years vs 1 I'd say this is a net positive personally
It is odd he has shot above 80% from the FT line which is a much better indicator future shooting success than 3pt % from the previous year. His shot isn't broken, I have hope getting out of his home town, shooting in Hilton and natural regression to the mean will result in more buckets from deep. I did note that even shooting poorly he is still known as a shooter and demanded defense attention so he helps spacing regardless.
Regardless his defense, over all skills and leadership is a big pick up for TJ.
I watched some Gopher games and his shot looks good so I think that percentage can jump
Hmm you seem to be right. I was watching some full game highlights from his sophomore year and he looked solid. That tweet above also said he’s an all big 10 defender. There’s also quite a few articles highlighting his defensive play, even from this year.
Updated list with Gabe.

JCL is better offensive, GK is better defensively. This season wasn’t as good, but he was great in his first two seasons.
FWIW, Gabe broke a finger on his shooting hand that kept him from playing the rest of the season from Feb. 14th and on.
That doesn’t take away his poor shooting from last year. Just thought I’d share that bc I haven’t seen that elsewhere.

This year he had a lower defensive rating, but he was very good his first two years. And this year was a strange year with COVID.
Yep I just watched this highlight. He had it “stuck on automatic”.. Very nice looking stroke.
This may shock you, but It’s ok to talk realistically about a player and be happy they came.
I almost wonder if his shooting being down as well means something was “off” as a whole with him. Hoping a full change in scenery helps whatever the cause was!
looks like he was a team captain last year. can always use the leadership.
