[QUOTE="jumpingjack, post: 1698771, member: 748646"] Dude is team first all day every day 365. That's why Brad loves him. But also why his offensive top line stats don't blow anybody away at first glance. He's been reinvented from a microwave scorer as a freshman into a lockdown defender often required to cool off the hottest hand on the opposing team. He's also the guy who is looked at for the last shot when the offense stalls or Kofi is out, meaning he's taking a lot of lower percentage heaves just to get the ball on iron. I have been following Illini basketball religiously for almost 40 years and he's one of the single name dudes in the modern era based on his current level of play relative to comp and context (team, system, rules).
