Parker and Randle clearly look like the best players on their teams tonight. Wiggins not so much but this is the first big game long college season ahead of us. And this game is a long way from being over maybe he will take over for a stretch
Not sure why people don't think Wiggins looks impressive. Obviously Perry Ellis is balling tonight, but Wiggins is still 7-13, 14 points, 7 boards, good defense, and he barely played the first half because of foul trouble. So far all the freshmen have lived up to the hype IMO. You can tell they're all going to be big time.
He reminds me of Michael gilchrist. Most athletic guy on the field but is the work ethic there? Is the killer instinct there?
I hope Wiggins develops a consistent outside stroke. Then, throw in a Parsons-esque head fake and watch the man utterly destroy bigs at the rim.
I know college and NBA likes to inflate a player's height. Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker both listed at 6ft8. Wiggins is definitely not 6ft8 YET...he's more like 6ft6, be nice 6ft7.
Really hope college basketball makes some changes to these foul rules. This is going to be an unwatchable season if this keeps up.
He has been somewhat impressive but the guy is said to be the best high school player since Lebron and so far he doesn't even look like the best guy in his class. Still early though and don't think any player could really live up to that hype espcially with how the college game is played.
Agree and they need to change the shot clock too. 35 seconds is way too long especially when those trolly 'unathletic' teams like Wisconsin just throw the ball around the key for 30 seconds.
Man people are expecting Wiggins to average 30 or he's a disappointment. Looks great...and that sequence right there was big time.
