He’s averaging what, 14 and 5 right now as a third option?

With my caveat of him improving his efficiency and with Jalen hypothetically gone, I don’t see it as bonkers for Vital to produce at that clip with a few more assists per game; especially if you put a shooter around him and AG, and if Carlton continues to improve at the post and PNR. He has been attacking the rim much more this year, averaging 5 FTs a game. Make three of those, hit a 3, make a couple baskets, one in transition, and you have 12 points. Again it comes down to efficiency. He has not been far off of alleged pro prospect Larrier in every other regard. Right up there with he and Jalen in most of the games that have mattered (quality opponents). Arguably better than Larrier against good or decent teams.

Starting with the Columbia game (which, without him, we lose and is the worst loss of the season), he has averaged 16.5 ppg. He can be a decent guard in the AAC on the AAC team that we will be fielding for the next 2 years.
