In response to SRP

If you donâ€™t watch the games ( not sure I missed one) look at the stats. Oni led the team in assets playing off ball most of the time.

The year before he led them in assists and played point a lot.

Copeland had a terrific year but wasnâ€™t perceived as a pg internally coming in to even this year. According to James Jones â€œ arguably the best player on the team at getting us into offensive sets and putting the ball where it needs to go is Eric Monroe.â€

Because copeland stepped up this yr in this role and because of the high ball screen offense they didnâ€™t really need a true point. should mean copeland with his stepup in a/to and prolific mid range game and quickness should be able to grow and play well as a pro somewhere. Bc he will need to be pg in a competitive league

He was reluctant as a 3 point shooter until the marbles were down. He shot it well and less reluctantly at the end. Certainly James Jones thinks he is more capable than his career stats and reluctance indicate. He says as much. But Oni has real range and isnâ€™t reluctant. And he is 6 6ish with a 6 10 wingspan. Which he is why he is one of 66 players in the world at the combine. On paper he is perfect for the modern nba.

Copelandâ€™s defense is fine in the ivy. He isnâ€™t in the zip code of defending nba guards

Oni has a chance bc he can guard wings and some 2 men. At least on paper. 3 and d. Which is why he has a chance to prove himself

Btw getting invited to the combine is unprecedented in the modern Ivy League. Unprecedented. You have to have the measurables and fit the prototype. Copeland isnâ€™t close

Bruner is the closest thing I have seen at Yale and in the ivies.
