It can be a fine line with guys like Cam. We've all known that super intense guy on your team or friend group that bugs you. But Cam seems to be that guy that the whole team loves. Watch the bench when he's playing and the interviews after the game. They aren't looking at him like a "try hard". They're going nuts. Also, note the confidence they have in his shot already. I looked up his highlights from last night. At 4 minutes left in the 2nd quarter he pulls up for a 3. GG Jackson (#45) throws his hands in there air as soon as Cam releases the ball.
Edited to ask a question: Would Cam be where he is if he had stayed at Rutgers? Not crapping on Rutgers or Pike. But did the exposure at UConn and showing he's a winner get him the two-way contract that is giving him this opportunity? In the end, he needs to earn it, but I can't help think that there are other guys out there that just never get that chance.
