I don’t agree with the he was unplayable notion as I’ve stated on here many times with the Auburn game as proof. The biggest change this year was simply playing time and having the offense ran around him. He pretty much just looked like he did those first three games. If we stopped playing Jeremy Lamb in January his freshman year people would’ve said he was unplayable too.

The only part of his game that visibly improved a lot was his defense. I don’t think we could say whether he got much better at moving off the ball because his freshman year he wasn’t asked to do that. Nor were we a good enough passing team for it to matter.

I’m in no way saying that Hawkins should’ve stayed. Just saying that he probably could’ve focused on improving other parts of his game more than his three point shot which was already a strength.

Because inevitably he is going to have struggles from 3 point range like everyone does and he’s going to need something else to fall back on. I’m rooting for him to become a big part of what New Orleans has going on.
