Jaylin Stewart Appreciation Thread

[formerlurker]

That young man grew up tonight.

 

[SL Husky]

St. John's had no answer for him for a 4 minute stretch there in the first half. He was outstanding.

 

[HHusky]

Fantastic highlights for an up and coming star!
Go Jaylin.

 

[ec33]

The faster pace suited his style - which is a trait he shares with a bunch of players who will get more time next year.

 

[bigknight3]

I like that he comes in and does everything within the flow of the offense.

Where as Solo Ball still has a tendency to force it. His contested 3pt shot today was unnecessary.

 

[M.S.G.]

Absolutely love this kid’s game, been rooting for him! Got so pumped when he was cooking!

 

[JonnyRI]

Jaylin will be a flat out dude for us next year. Expect a huge jump to a double figure scorer.

 

[Sole]

His defense looks very solid to me.

 

[OceanDoggie]

As long as Karaban is able to bang in the post against the opposing Team's bigs, it is a real interesting small lineup to have Jaylin running around at the 4.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Absolute stud

 

[controlfade]

I love this kid, so glad to see him getting more and more playing time.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

He has progressed so much over the course of this season. I expect big things from him next year.

 

[huskeynut]

Another player for our opponents to deal with.

Stewart is going to be trouble in the NCAA's. Quick, fast, good defender and rebounder. He understands the offensive scheme UConn runs.

Shot clock was at 4.

 

[HuskyBoi]

Remember, Donny Marshall is his cousin, not the other way around.

 

[bluestreak]

Love his contribution as we get into tournament time.
The talent was always there, and now his comfort level is rising in time for a run in the dance.
Great to see it.

 

[NJHoops]

He got a late start but trusted the staff’s plan for development and is now playing and contributing. Proud of Jaylin!

 

[mauconnfan]

His defense has improved a ton since early season and he’s getting more comfortable. I think he’s a nice piece for now but I expect he will be quite the sophomore stud fairly early next year. I mean imagine what’s going on in practice. He went from no minutes, a guy Hurley said needs to practice better to catch up to a guy they play before the others at all times. Exciting stuff

 

[Improviser]

I like that he comes in and does everything within the flow of the offense.

Reminds me of Karaban last year when he always let the game come to him.

Maybe next year, Stewart will drive to the basket as Karaban has been doing much more this year.

If Stewart develops a consistent outside shot, all the better.

When you only get a few minutes to show your stuff you tend to press. Stewie is getting more comfortable, playing within the flow, and taking what is available. What I liked seeing from him was, one time he was out of position on defense but recognized it quickly and moved. When his three starts falling he will be difficult to guard.

The other guys need to be patient and wait their turn. We are going for a natty here.

Jaylin has a deep bag off the dribble that he isn't getting to use right now. Mich better than Alex's. He'll be a fun player next season

 

[Hunt for 7]

I kept saying he was going to have a game where he made some shots and helped us win a game. Perfect time to add another piece. His defense has been very good. Glad to see the success coming from around the basket. Hopefully it gives him the confidence to hit a few threes. You can see in games he is aiming because the rotation on the ball is not the same as during pregame warmups. But just love to see him getting the run at the most important time.

 

[jibsey]

I don’t want Solo going anywhere. Hurley alluded to young guys and the portal being a threat in press conference. I hope the kid understands how vital he is to the team next year.

 

[Huskybass]

There aren't enough Os in Smoooooooth to describe Jaylin Stewart.

My guess is at a minimum Jaylin and Solo will have very large rolls next year. Can’t imagine the sell will have to be that hard for either.

 

[SteelCT]

This is my fear as well. Jaylin and Solo are going to be big time projects making sure theyre staying with the good guys.

 

[tzznandrew]

Shot clock was at 4.

It was a fine shot. The problem was that he was worried about whether it went in and didn't rotate back defensively, allowing St. John's a fast break.

 

[Poe]

What he didn’t do was come in and jack up a 3, he played within the flow of the offense and made an impact on both ends of the court. That’s what he needs to do the rest of the way. Next year he can start shooting more, I’m excited to watch his growth next year, kid is definitely a player.

Castle-smooth.

If Alex comes back next year i think our starting frontcourt will be Alex at the 4, Samson at the 5 and J Stewart at the 3.
