Message: [QUOTE="UncleSpliff, post: 4191969, member: 11118"] It literally says on the Uconn depth chart (which comes from the team) that he’s a “guard.” Several other list him as “sg” As far as defensive capabilities… he played Gillespie most of the game when he was in there on Saturday and gave up 20 points in a little more than a half until he sprained his ankle. Gillespie got by him at will for finishes and assists and posted him up inside the key for several and 1s. Yes he’s much better than Hawkins on defense but we gave up 85 points on Saturday… Can Hawkins’s defense be that much worse when he’s in there compared to a starter who routinely go scoreless or scores 1-3 points?? Yes he’s an excellent rebounder and has great court vision but his handle is terrible which forces him to play sg except he can’t shoot. He really needs to develop a handle and distribute similar to Ben Simmons. [/QUOTE]
