So this guy was pretty dominant his sophomore and junior years (I seem to recall a bit of NBA Draft buzz surrounding him in the spring of 2016). Granted he did have a knee injury at the start of the season, but what on earth is up with him regressing this drastically as a senior? Anyone plugged in down there have any insight?

He had 2 points and no boards off of 1-4 shooting against BC today, playing only 8 minutes. Hopefully he can pick things up by the time the senior showcase season starts and get himself an overseas contract.
(Clarification: this is not in any way suggesting we were better off missing out on him, because we clearly weren't. Even with this collapse, the value he could have provided to this team from 2014-17 is too high to be quantified. I'm simply curious as to what's behind this, because it doesn't seem to happen very often.)
