We don’t beat Final Four NC State without Waterman balling out.

His shooting did struggle vs. the Big 12 for much of the year, but he still had big shots and big games.

But that wasn’t all he was there for. His defense, rebounding, and overall improved hustle and effort were big keys to our success last year.

We don’t need to run him down.

And I’ll still take Catchings over him, hands down, 10 times out of 10.
