I’m probably in the minority but I don’t like Bruner. He plays too stiff, he’s not as good of a shooter as people give him credit for.
You are not watching if you think Bruner isn't a fantastic player. He averaged 11/12/3 and 2 blocks. 42% from deep 46% from the field vs high major competition this season. That's no joke.
He'd be the best rebounder and far and away the best frontcourt passer on our team this year.
It's not about giving credit. He's shot 33% from deep on 4 attempts per game. That's better than any frontcourt.player we have and around our team average. Only Boul and Polley shot better. AG and CV are right around 33% too. The season is almost over. Ball don't lie. If it goes in you're a shooter.
Yale is a darn could team this year. Currently we have 0 power forward recruits on the radar--we desperately need a tall shotblocking big that is comfortable on the perimeter. Etienne, Sanogo, Cliff, or Santos aren't filling that role as good as they are.
Bruner and Swain are the absolute leaders of that team. He is a professional in his practice habits. We would be lucky to have him. As well as the 50 other d1 programs that are going to give him a call this April
