How was DeAndre the better player? I guess sophomore year DeAndre was better in terms of overall field goal percentage, but he was the 3rd option and had Napier and Boatright, so that makes it somewhat easier. He was also a better shot blocker.
Everything else Hamilton blows him away. DeAndre had 20 assists and 50 turnovers his sophomore year, Hamilton had a 2:1 A/TO ratio as a primary ball handler. He shot worse than Hamilton from 3. He was a much worse rebounder. He was worse from the line. He had fewer steals.
I think we are easily better in 2012-13 if we could replace sophomore year Daniels with sophomore year Hamilton.
