In years past I would agree. With NIL and his unique circumstances,

he may break the mold and come back because he enjoyed his time at BYU and feels he can develop more under KY. If there was no NIL i would completely agree. Maybe BYU could get him some great insurance to minimize risk for him in addition to a few million dollars in NIL money.

Agreed. I think he wants to play here next year.

UNLVcougar

He has a good stroke. They will start falling. Most off the back rim

No kidding

ABCoug

Some of those drives to the rim were absolutely beautiful.

UNLVcougar

Mar 27, 8:26pm

Yeah I feel he needs to drive more

ABCoug

Mar 27, 8:27pm

He does. Playing too much to prove scouts wrong about his shooting

BYU '80

Mar 27, 8:29pm

I think it would both open up the 3 shot and make him more comfortable shooting

Extremely impressive human — mature well beyond his years.

Dude seemed to have really enjoyed his experience. He’s emotional there.

There’s a lot to love about that kid.

I would take him back in a heartbeat

Don’t ya want to think about it though

If you had to choose between having mad cow disease and having him back, which

RBLegend

Mar 27, 8:29pm

All depends on how I contracted the disease. Are there lawsuit options

He's a great young man. Age 18. Speaking English.

Mar 27, 8:29pm

Only learned it two years ago, while in Spain!

Mar 27, 8:34pm

His English is incredible.

He’s just a freshman. Hard to remember. But stack him up against all other

BYU '80

Mar 27, 8:31pm

He's probably going to be a top 10 pick. I think someone will let him know

AlexKnight

Mar 27, 8:52pm

Yes, he's got it made, but he's also sacrificing a lot. He wants/needs support

WB Coug

Mar 27, 8:34pm

Yeah..tough to not have a real childhood.

UNLVcougar

Mar 27, 8:46pm

I don’t know the story. Had to leave his family at age 15?

Mar 27, 9:02pm

so that he could go play for the euro clubs

UNLVcougar

Mar 27, 9:03pm

Love that he enjoyed his time at BYU. Would be incredible to have him back its

Mar 27, 8:38pm

Lots of scenarios that could play out that he makes more money longterm staying

ABCoug

Mar 27, 8:43pm

Most of those scenarios involve failure in the NBA. Delaying 2nd NBA contract

NYC and Japan

Mar 27, 9:22pm

Or moving to #1 or #2 slot

ABCoug

Mar 27, 9:42pm

With NIL, it makes more sense now to have a long term perspective than in years

People forget this, its not all or nothing anymore

Thinking inside the numbers

Exept you come back to get more in first NBA contract and improve your

ABCoug

His heart wants to come back. The logical side will say go. Whatcha gonna do?

Rexy Coug

Mar 27, 9:24pm

Does it look like he was emotional, maybe before the interview?

Mar 27, 9:34pm

Reminds my of a Russian kid who spent a year at my house in an exchange program.
