Devon Dotson Appreciation Thread

NBA. No expectation he returns. It will hurt not seeing him for another 1/2 years but this was always reality. Hoping he ends his career here with a title in hand!
-
Oh
-
Tell me Devon isn’t locked in right now.
-
@BeddieKU23 I meant g league or playing on a nba team. A mason or DG?
-
Gotta be special and long to stick in the league with very few exceptions. It’s nearly impossible to overcome the length disadvantage.

Think he is on a team to start but may bounce down for some experience etc
-
I keep seeing him listed as 6’2". Anyone think that’s real? Also, is it just me or are his arms kinda short. Not like short compared to most people but like short compared to most basketball players.

Measured 6’2 in shoes at the NBA Combine last year, so must be pretty accurate. Just perusing through the measurements, I think everyone was wearing platform shoes lol
-
He doesn’t dunk much, I think last time started his hip problem?
-
@benshawks08 If he’s 6’2", I’m Brad Pitt.
My wife will vouch that he’s not 6’2"
-
Regardless of his height, he’s one bad motha
-
6’3” wingspan is pretty normal for a guy his height. It would be easier for him on defense if he was longer, but he’s not a t-Rex like Svi.
-
@rockchalkwyo No doubt!

No question that Dot is ahead of where Mason and Graham were as sophomores. He also has started every game but one I believe this far in his career, so that does help. His assist to turnover ratio has improved the last month. I believe Mason and Graham to be better shooters and passers than Dot but he has a super quick first step and can get to the lane a little easier. I think he goes late first round and if he can he’d be a fool to stay. I think this is the weakest draft class in over a decade personally. He needs to find consistency in shooting 3s and finishing at the rim. His game very close to Masons, where Graham is much better is his range to shoot. I believe that’s why Graham is doing better right now. I think both Dot and Mason can be solid back up PGs in the right organization. Dot is having a great season and I’m glad he’s here!!
-
@BShark No doubt. I was worried there for a few games - injury must have been worse than I had thought. If he shoots 3s in the Tournament like he has been recently (ditto Garrett) look out.
-
Dotson made the final 5 for the Cousy award given to the nation’s top PG
-
He will be faster to 1k pts than Danny and Pierce.

And Rush

Best sophomore season since Wilt. Possibly best sophomore guard/wing at KU. THAT is saying something pretty amazing.
-
The Cousy should be his IMO
-
Whew

That’s my PG.
-
1st-team All-American, without question. So much for the slump (Lol), huh?
-
It will be interesting to see who gets B12 player of the year but I gotta think both Dot and Doke will be on at least the second team all America.

He talks like a man now. Love his confidence in interviews.
