How does he, in a league with a lot of good big men, consistently establish himself down low?
I think it’s a couple of things. For one, I think it’s a product of his entire career as a basketball player. A lot of times when he was playing he was probably shorter than some of the centers he was playing against. Maybe not all the time in high school, but several guys, and he just learned how to score the ball over those guys. Obviously being here and working with our coaches and things, recognizing how he has to score over certain guys. There are certain guys he has to put his body into and there are certain guys he has to move around… what we call move around a little bit and make the big guy move while using the rim to his advantage. As you saw the other night against McFarland, he really used the rim with some up-and-unders and finishing on the other side of the basket. He’s just learning… he’s learning how to play against those guys. A couple of other coaches have mentioned he’s able to score over either shoulder. Is that something he’s always done or something he’s devel
