Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 5344431, member: 7511"] Kitts is certainly a player who has potential to be a solid 3-pt shooter. But it’s hard for me to consider her a true Big. As for Dauda, she hoisted up 91 x 3-pt shots in her last year at Arkansas, so she’s never had a problem pulling the trigger. The only game I watched Okot play was the NCAA tournament game against USC. She is clearly a bull in the paint. But she did not demonstrate to me the ability to step out on the court offensively or defensively. In fact, after Juju went down, both Iriafen & Marshall had big games against MSSt’s frontcourt. Rather than encouraging Okot to shoot 3’s, I would expect that Dawn is working feverishly with her on high screen and rolls with Latson and the other SC guards who can attack the basket. If Okot becomes proficient at the pick and pop off that action, whether it’s a 15’ jumper or a 3-pt shot, all the better. But her ability to roll to the basket like a freight train would be pretty damned impressive. [/QUOTE]
