I posted in more detail back on page 9 of this thread comparing Ayo's potential Freshman year to other recruits in his ranking range over the past few years. What I came away with was we should probably look for around 25 minutes, 10 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 assists so I don't think you are too far off.

If he is our starting PG next year, I sure hope we get more than 2 assists per game out of him or we could have problems. If he is a break 'em down slasher, he should get plenty of opportunities to kick out to shooters and get assists. Tejon, being a true PG didn't get enough assists last year and he was over 3, so Ayo, again, providing he is getting starter's minutes, needs to be at 4 or better. Trent is certainly more of a shoot-first guard. Maybe Feliz ends up being the one getting the 4-5 apg.

First real video of Giorgi I've seen.



That is one large slice of human being.

That video actually reminds me a bit of Mav. Looks like he has reasonable skills and good feel but the college game is likely to be about 1000x too quick and athletic for him at the outset.

Nice ball handling and shooting stroke as well. If Giorgi can compete physically, he'll be a contributor over the coming years.

Mav his sr year in college? or Mav his sr year in HS? I don't recall Mav every putting the ball through his legs on the outside or using a hesitation dribble... I am seeing alot more ball skill potential - of course that has to be applied to the college D, but at least the basis is there. How many times did Happ just semi-slow dribble us to the basket?

More of a 4 than a 5. Looks like very much a face-up game player and has been said to be a good passer.

WAMV (Wins Above Matic Vesel) remains to be seen.
