[QUOTE="Illiniguy90, post: 1506544, member: 746457"] Working under the following 2 assumptions 1. The only way a team should be able to draw Kofi away from the basket on the defensive end is if the opposing team's center has an effective 3 point shot 2. Any Big that's shooting below 33% from 3 is pushing the team's overall pts per possession below 1.0 whenever they shoot from beyond the arc so you may as well just let them shoot that non-sense. The following is the primary Big for each B10 team that Kofi would be guarding and their 3pt% (shots made / taken if relevant). Flagging the ones that need to be guarded on the perimeter. Indiana: 6'-9" Trayce Jackson-Davis 0% / 6'-11" Joey Brunk 0% / 6'-8" Race Thompson 33.3% (1/3) Iowa: 6'-11" [B]Luka Garza[/B] 43.5% (10/23) / 6'-11" Jack Nunge 21.4% / 6'-10" Ryan Kriener 20% Maryland: 6'-10" Jalen Smith 29.2% Michigan: 7'-1" Jon Teske 28.0% Michigan State: 6'-8" Xavier Tillman 23.5% Minnesota: 6'-10" [B]Daniel Oturu[/B] 38.5% (5/13) / 6'-9" [B]Alihan Demir[/B] 42.9% (6/14) Nebraska: 6'-9" Yvan Ouedraogo 0% / 6'-8" Kevin Cross 28.6% / 6'-8" Matej Kavas 31% Northwestern: 6'-10" Ryan Young 0% / 6'-10" Pete Nance 32.4% (12/37) an Ohio State: 6'-9"[B] Kaleb Wesson[/B] 44.8% (13/29) / 6'-8" Kyle Young 33.3% (1/3) / Penn State: 6'-9" Mike Watkins 0% / 6'-9" John Harrar 0% Purdue: 7'-3" [B]Matt Haarms[/B] 38.5% (5/13) Rutgers: 6'-10" Myles Johnson 0% Wisconsin: 6'-11" [B]Nate Reuvers[/B] 30.3% (10/33) [I]was 38.1% (32/84) last season[/I] Ohio State, Purdue, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota may try to stretch Kofi but we should be able to have Kofi sag off the rest.
