Will Richard was unable to play due to some draft/trade stipulation Walter has 4 assists in 5 minutes, and an outlet pass that led to another bucket (no assist because it chained to another pass) So far superb defense as well
I think Walter is showcasing his game on defense and as a facilitator (some of the pre draft question marks listed in his draft profile) Definitely not the Walter tasked to be the primary scorer
Will took the final shot of the game for the win but his 3 pointer bounced on the rim a couple times and fell out. Dammit. Funny that he is on the same team with LJ Cyer and Javier Francis of Houston Cougar fame.
Will Richard had a tremendous game. His FG% is lacking but he went 8/8 at the FT line. He may be a huge steal in the draft for Golden State, and honestly could have the longest career of the 3 drafted. He is long enough and can develop into a coveted 3+D player for many years. Might have many jerseys accumulated with that type of career path.
I liked in the 76's/Jazz game, Broome (that Auburn "star") ran the floor and was under the basket when Clayton showed up to guard him. Broome made the mistake and put the ball on the floor for a quick dribble and Clayton knocked it away. The next time down the court Broome laid Clayton out. You could just barely see it on the left side of the screen, but John did a number on him. Guess he didn't like loosing three times to Will in the last few months.
I'm sure a lot of respect. Will really was the mvp of the final game. Probably agree that Uzan and Arceno were just a notch under and the Gators physical play on them made the difference.
Will carried the team offensively in the first half to keep the ship afloat and made several key defensive plays down the stretch including the blocked 3 point attempt late in the game. I was beyond elated he got his "one game" of the tournament in the championship game. Not that he was playing poorly during the tournament, he showed up in big moments offensively and defensively throughout, but overall was rather quiet most of the way. The 3 guard tandem lifting each other throughout the regular season and delivering in the tournament, what a wonderful season it was
Late in the Final Four game, Broome shoved Condo hard in the back, sending him to the floor. No call.
Walter didn't have a great night last night. 6 assists, 6 turnovers, only 7 shot attempts Ended up+/- +13 when he was on the floor though
Walter with 20pts, 4 assists and 4 threes to lead the team last night. Needs get his percentages up but looked good
