KJ with 25 in a win last night. Anyone feel free to post w/e they find here.
-
KJ 34 points last night. Team scored 62.
-
Had this thought and am curious about how other folks think. Instead of getting super high ranked guys, we’re getting guys that have a “thing” that they just do better than others. Curry is a rebounder/dunker. Clemence a shooter. Adams a matchup problem at the 4. Not a lot of pro talent there, but those guys are going to make a tough college frontcourt to defend.
-
I think it is fine to go after guys who are skilled at basically one thing. I think it is smart to go after some guys who may be undersized so you know they will stay four years.
But most importantly we need to find guys who can play next to each other. I love that this group can mix and match and play next to each other.
Last year for instance, playing Big Dave next to Doke was horrible. And Mitch without adding a shot to his game never could give Doke the space he needed down low.
You need a PF who can stretch his guy away from your C if you are going to have a “dunker” at C. You have to have an athlete at PF if you are going to have a guy like Clemence play 5. It seems like this group has all of that.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah I think either of the other guys pairs will with Zach and same with Jalen. The only pairing I wouldn’t want to see is KJ and Curry on the floor at the same time.
-
Wilson has been amazing for us so far this year. The guy is stretching into the 5 and can go all the way down to a 3. Love his rebounding and his aggression to the basket. Been a while since we had someone so hungry.
He’s making a solid case for athleticism being overrated. What good is it if you don’t use it? We’ve had so many amazing athletes that rarely left their game on the court. Always frustrated the cr@p out of me.
-
He is a steal… And is going to flatout perform.
-
@drgnslayr I think we can all agree that Jalen is a different breed… Quick first step. Elite hand-eye coordination for a guy who is 6’8. Basketball IQ is extremely high.
Sure if they can go find another one bring him in lol.
-
Zach 20/7/3 last game on 60% shooting.
-
Some KJ highlights https://twitter.com/lonestarhoopz/status/1337643351693291520
-
Zach with 8/5 against Monteverde which like Sunrise is basically a college team. He had to go up against Jalen Duren, who is a guy that probably never sees a college court. He doesn’t get as many shots as he will get under Self I would bet.
-
Duren looks like 2.0 Dwight Howard
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah, total beast. Hopefully he skips college, would suck if he ended up at UK.
-
Can’t imagine he’ll play College with the options available to kids like him
-
-
Zach had a fairly rough game against La Lumiere. Had to go against HOPEFULLY COLLEGE TEAMMATE 7 foot freak athlete Vince Iwuchukwu.
8p/6rb/3ast/4stl but shot 2-10

A real freak at that - - -hope so , he said KU was for sure was involved

ESPNU is currently showing Sunrise vs. IMG if anyone wants to watch Clemence play live against top HS competition.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 how did he do?
-
-
@BShark Very cool of you to do that, thank you.
-
KJ Adams has had some big games lately. His team is 20-1. Had 29 and 30 in a few. 11 dunks in 2 games.
This KU team only has 29 on the year… hes gonna dunk a lot here

Jesus Christ, it will be nice to see some dunks again next season
-
They are not playing great teams but the man is a hammer around the post. He is wired to score in the lane. Just physically imposing in HS. He won’t score as easy here but there are things he can do that will translate. Self can really play him in multiple spots

How many players do we even have right now that can dunk in a game. Ochai and Tyon?

Seen Christian Dunk So he can but haven’t seen it much about the only time is on break aways

Sydney Curry hasn’t played in either game for his JUCO so far. Haven’t been able to figure out why
-
Curry had an akle injury. He will play this week
-
@BeddieKU23 bro, Adams is a player!
-
@BShark for real, right? Braun has dunked a time or two. Oh, I can dunk too (for real, even still on goid days)), but have exhausted my eligibility…
-
Curry had his first game. 6 pts, 11 boards, 5 steals, 4 turnovers, 2 assists. 1-4 fg, 4-8 ft. Came off the bench in this one
-
Zach dropped 20 on 9-13 shooting last night.
-
Curry had 9 pts, 7 boards, 2 assists, 3 turnovers. 3/6 from the line in his last game
Takeaways from his games so far, he boards, he is a terrible free throw shooter and turns the ball over a lot. Seems to have 2/3 assits a game so that’s promising.

Sunrise beat Oak Hill Acad the other night and we all know how good they are out of Mouth of Wilson - -is that the same game you talking about cause that was a HUGE WIN for Sunrise
-
Curry has played 5 games, all off the bench
Averaging 8 ppg, 8 rebounds per.
44% from the FT line (11-25), he’s Doke bad…
55% FG
1 blk in 5 games. 2 assists per, 1.6 steals.
-
We should have the lowest of expectations for Curry
-
KJ Adams had 28 in his last, area championship game. Westlake has won 21 straight games…
-

Set screens and rebound.
-
Dunk as well
-
Update on Sydney Curry
After a slow start caused by an ankle injury Curry has scored in double figures in 8 straight games. Over that span he’s averaging 15 ppg, 8.6 reb pg, 2 ast pg, 2 to’s pg, 1.5 blk’s pg. Impressive to note is he’s averaged 4 offensive boards in his last 8 games. FT % continues to be a problem, 49%. Shooting 67% from the field on the season though which I think will translate for what KU will ask him to do, dunk/score around the rim.
-
Yeah, seems pretty clear he wasn’t ready to come back from the injury at first.
-
@BeddieKU23 After this post he went for 24/11 and 11/10. Coming on strong. Just dunk, screen and rebound.

exactly what we need someone solid
-
I honestly have such little faith that he will be an impact player next season that he is probably going to end up in the rafters lol.

I’m in the middle on him. If he is just a nice bench piece to give Dave a breather that’s great.
-
@BShark I just think there are like 10+ transfers I’d rather have than Curry. So he better be more than that long-term because I think we could land a guy who could take over Dave’s role next year and we will instead be taking Curry.

Yeah I tend to agree there are lots of guys I would take instead. I think if we want to add another big we have to process Gethro which I would be fine with. In hoops you don’t just tell a guy to decommit like you do in football. I would rather have Traore or Aidoo than Gethro. Not sure if they are doing to get involved for Aidoo this time but I know they are going after Traore.
-
@BShark I think you can just be blunt with him. Gethro is out - we are going after a guy we think will play over you so the situation has changed. If Curry still wants to come after that then he can come.
