POTD. That's exactly right. You don't just go from a guy that never looked at the rim from more than 7 feet out to being a confident and effective perimeter player, who is even a marginal threat to consider defensively. His form might be better, his mechanics might be better, but after a year of non competitive basketball......if you're Brad and staff, you can't gamble outside of committing to him that he will have a role, but the role would be centered around toughness, leadership, effort, rebounding and defense. Anything after that that he gives his gravy.
I don't think that Ty is going to accept that type of role with only two years of eligibility left. He would be a HUGE addition if he took that role on and embraced it because he'd be a critical piece to team success, but if he did.....he'd basically be admitting that he really has no plans to pursue an NBA career, but his focus would be Turkey, China or an assistant coaching job.
That works be hugely mature and self aware, but you don't see many 20/21 year olds in that head space when other coaches will be promising him more.
. He just messaged me last week talking about work so I’m just assuming he’s travel by this week.
