Rodney Purvis to UConn

[HobokenHusky]

Fantastic pick up. He should flourish as the scoring lead guard in the 3 guard line-up. As mentioned above his shooting percentages (44% FG and 38% 3pt) are fine for a freshman (compare to 40% FG and 32% 3pt for OC). Look for those numbers to improve with another year of training and practicing under KO. He has worked very hard heading into college to become a pg, he just needs more time actually running the point, which he should get over the next year in practice against SN, TS and RB.

Somewhat OT, but here is a video of him working with the elite pg skills trainer Micah Lancaster (more cones, but he isn't guarding a chair either ...and some HS highlights). Micah has worked with many top young pgs from Kyrie Irving to Mario Chalmers.

Rodney has ten toes in, how about you freescooter?

There is not a SINGLE folding chair in that video. I remain skeptical until I see video with him shooting over/doing a spin move on AT LEAST 1 folding chair.

I can see similarities between him and BG.

Little bigger and stronger than BG (although not BG level shooter...yet)...maybe halfway between BG and DWade?
