Your weekly K-State player per 100s:
Jevon - Shooting has already been discussed plenty, but still impressed with his rate of assists and assist to TO ratio. I still think he can be a good (perhaps very good) player if he gets the shooting part of the game figured out at this level. Even though he can't make a FT, I like that he gets to the line at the rate he does.
Foster - Continuing to maintain his pts per 100 above 30 is really impressive to me. I thought as the season went along that he might dip a bit but he's been steady week to week. TOs are still an issue, but his improvement in assists is notable as well.
Nigel - Steady player, nice assist to TO ratio, and leads the team in steals when he's on the floor. Another nice shooting day at OU, though much of it in garbage time.
Westicles - It was nice to see him have a good game at Tech. Offensive boarding has dropped in Big 12 play, but still very good on the defensive boards, solid assist to TO, and still leads in FT rate.
DJamer - Not quite as much this past week, but still doing some nice things with the minutes he gets. Nice rebounder and shot blocker that never turns the ball over.
Nino - Its hard not to like what he consistently brings to this team, oboarding and efficient scoring, probably our best interior player against a zone at finding gaps for short jumpers. Plays good defense considering he always guards bigger guys. I with he'd dboard a bit better and get the FT line a bit more (especially since he makes them at a high rate now), but he's really good in what he does for this team.
Omari - I've become more content with what he's done the last several weeks in Big 12 games, but he still makes me a bit nervous. I'm glad he's here to push Westicles and he is really good at getting to the rim, though his FT shooting is challenging Jevon's for its ineptitude.
Shane - I wish he'd score more and I hope he gets back into the flow on offense, but his dboarding, passing, and defense are all big assets to this team.
Will - Will has become what we've always wanted Will to be. Knocking down 3s at a 40% clip, solid defender, being a bit more aggressive on defense. I would've never imagined his eFG% being as high as it is this year.
Gip - Pts per 100 has dipped a bit, but that's partially due to him playing more minutes (3rd in min%). I'd like to see him be a little more proactive and get more touches, but part of that is on the guards and our tendency to have some dumb turnovers. Its so nice to see him have the ability to get up and dunk in traffic/break opportunities and show some ability to play above the rim. Really good on the boards as well, though it would be nice to see a few more oboards.
