Stat Line Game 2 – 5 points (2-9 FG), 5 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, 0 turnovers
Struggled a bit from the field but took a huge step forward with his playmaking as he made some solid passes in both games and served as a solid facilitator in the process.  A decent overall performance in both games highlighted by his improved playmaking.

JADEN CHAMPION – 2017 – PG
Stat Line Game 1 – 11 points (5-11 FG), 5 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 assist, 5 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – DNP
Struggled with turnovers in the first game but beyond that he attacked the basket well, was active on the glass, made things happen defensively, etc.  A decent effort to wrap his 2011 JR BOC efforts.

JOSH MUELLER – 2016 – F/C
Stat Line Game 1 – 10 points (5-6 FG), 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 blocks, 1 turnover

DEREK THOMPSON JR. – 2016 – G
Stat Line Game 1 – 6 points (2-8 FG), 4 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, 3 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 13 points (6-10 FG), 7 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 assists, 1 block, 3 turnovers

His opening game was perhaps his best this fall as he was active on the offensive end, efficient as well, aggressive on the glass, made things happen defensively, etc.  As he brings consistent activity and aggressiveness to the floor every time he takes the court, his overall production will be consistent as well.

JUWAN MCCLOUD – 2016 – PG
Stat Line Game 1 – 8 points (3-12 FG), 4 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 8 points (4-12 FG), 3 assists, 2 steals, 1 rebound, 1 block, 2 turnovers
Wasn’t as assertive as a playmaker in the final week as prior weeks but overall made some things happen across the board on both ends.  Struggled from the field and with turnovers as well.  Was active defensively, kicked out some solid passes, etc.  

JACK POPP – 2016 – G/F
Stat Line Game 1 – 19 points (8-15 FG), 16 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 1 steal, 2 turnovers

Stat Line Game 2 – 4 points (2-6 FG), 3 assists, 1 rebound, 1 steal, 4 turnovers
Struggled from the field but made an effort to be active defensively and create on the offensive end and that was a nice step forward. Needs to be more efficient with his shot selection and reduce his turnovers but made some solid steps in the right direction in the final week approach wise.

MICHAEL FERRICI – 2016 – F
Stat Line Game 1 – 4 points (2-8 FG), 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, 2 steals, 0 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 11 points (3-11 FG), 10 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 turnover
Struggled from the field but was more assertive offensively and active on the glass and that resulted in a couple nice overall floor performances.  Needs to stay active and aggressive on both ends while improving his efficiency from the field moving forward.  Like his potential with hard work.

EZEKIEL GUETHS – 2016 – F/C
Stat Line Game 1 – 4 points (2-5 FG), 13 rebounds, 1 block, 2 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 24 points (10-17 FG), 19 rebounds, 2 blocks, 2 turnovers

Stat Line Game 2 – 14 points (6-11 FG), 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, 0 turnovers
Struggled from the field in the opening game but overall he was very impressive in the final week as he showed solid breakdown skills, nice rebounding instincts, quality vision, etc.  Has range, can score off the bounce, and has solid playmaking potential as well.  Really like his upside and potential.


DUKE
TERRENCE LEWIS – 2017 – SF
Stat Line Game 1 – 16 points (7-14 FG), 5 rebounds, 2 steals, 4 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 15 points (6-16 FG), 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 0 turnovers
Really pleased with his final week efforts as he was active, assertive, and aggressive in the same sense on both ends.  Struggled from the field in the second game but made key baskets when it mattered the most.  Has solid range, nice instincts, and the potential to be an impact across the board on both ends and he proved that once again in the final week with a couple solid performances.

TEJON LUCAS – 2016 – PG
Stat Line Game 1 – 9 points (3-10 FG), 2 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 turnover
Stat Line Game 2 – 10 points (4-10 FG), 2 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 assist, 1 turnover
Wrapped his fall efforts with a couple of decent performances where he showed range, solid instincts, nice vision, etc.  Needs to be more assertive as a playmaker while maintaining his aggressiveness on the offensive end and would like his overall floor activity to continue to develop in the coming years.  Has nice vision, makes solid passes, can knock down the jumper, etc. and he showed all that in flashes in the final week.

JORDAN POOLE – 2017 – PG
Stat Line Game 1 – 11 points (4-8 FG), 6 assists, 5 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 9 points (4-13 FG), 5 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 turnovers
Was solid in both games despite struggles from the field in the second game and with some turnovers in both.  Nevertheless, delivered his best overall performance of the fall in the opening game as he scored with efficiency, made some excellent passes, was active on the glass, and disruptive defensively.  Would like to see activity and floor efforts like the opening game every time he takes the floor.

ADAM WIECZOREK – 2016 – F
Stat Line Game 1 – 4 points (2-5 FG), 4 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block, 0 turnovers
Stat Line Game 2 – 18 points (8-11 FG), 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block, 1 steal, 1 turnover
Didn’t bring his usual energy in the opening game but delivered nicely in the final one as he scored with efficiency, attacked the glass, etc.  Really made a nice name for himself with a number of solid efforts this fall and the last game in the final week was a perfect example why.
