His ceiling might not be as high as Egor or Kanon, but he’s more experienced and maybe on their level right now. Hitting the (basically) game winner in the road at Kansas will go a long way for confidence in end of game situations.

Down 1 with 12 seconds to go… who is taking final shot on this roster?

Demin is the most likely as he can get his own shot. But there are many options

The yet to be known person who gets the coveted 13th scholarship.

Yeah, his step back 3 is legit.

Saunders driving to basket please

zerome4sooners

I don’t want the ball with Saunders in those situations

LakeshowCougs

Saunders.

Plantagenet

Jun 21, 7:41pm

Egor prob our most dynamic player but did have 5.5 TO in Euroleague so there

Not sure where you are pulling your numbers from, but they are not accurate

Adidas Next Gen tourney and looks like I was wrong it’s 4.1 TO/game. Point is

Yes his last 4 games were in that tournament but the ones before that were not.

Baker will be a frequent option here. Hall is always an option.

I rarely agree with laker fans but you are correct imo

We have our moments.

LifeLongLakerFan

Spot on. 3rd and 4th options would be Saunders and Knell. You want someone who bleeds deep blue for that job.

Let me in coach, I’ve got this one.

Egor or Baker

Hall has had multiple game winners, is one of our most experienced guys and

NorthernCougifornia

Jun 21, 3:53pm

He just needs to get his FT% at 80% or above, imo

LeGrandBleu

Jun 21, 3:57pm

Yeah, and he has two epically bad end of game moments that are hard to forget. He's amazing, all the same.

Bob Vance

Jun 21, 4:50pm

But for one, he no long has Keita (sp?) to bounce off. 😉

Trent

All the greats had moments of epic failure too

Dr T-bone

Jun 21, 4:54pm

I recall him dribbling it off his leg last yr 2 diff times in such scenarios

It was Jaxson. Today it is TBD. Pushed to the wall, I'd pick Richie but Demin or

Forzaitalia

Jun 21, 5:15pm

Not one of the freshmen should take a final shot until they have proven themselves.

Wingnut

Jun 21, 3:43pm

Someone that is a good FT shooter in case they get fouled.

LeGrandBleu

Jun 21, 3:44pm

Baker

Blue2thebone

Jun 21, 4:04pm

Egor, Baker or Catchings. 3 very good options

Coug76

Jun 21, 4:36pm

Attack the best match-up on the court.

Mostlyaccurate

Jun 21, 4:40pm

Definitely not Hall. To be seen but I’m hopeful that Baker is that dude

Haysom Till

Jun 21, 4:57pm

I think you’re wrong about Hall.
