My opinion looking at stats...

[TwinDegrees2]

Furst needs to be shooting a lot more that he is. He averaged 57.3 as a freshman, 51.3 as a Soph, he was way down as a Junior due to a lack of PT but he still shot at a 45% clip, and this year is at 57.1 percent.

As a Soph he had 161 bboards, and 194 points, his best overall season.

He can and has moved out and hit the three and has done well with the 8–10-footer.

Maybe there needs to be more plays for Furst and get him back to doing what he did as a freshman.

Get him the shots to bring him up to 12-14 per game.

No idea what happened to his shooting, but look at the 3pt% as a freshman. Now, when he is making a handoff or setting a screen few really focus on him where if able he could take the ball to the rim or deep enough to cause rotations. His mechanics are scary, but can't recall if they were in play his freshman year. Here is a thought...can you recall any player that played the 5 since Juan Johnson (can't recall if Calison was after him ) that could shoot anything other than a jump hook, drop step or up and under although Trey has a floater). Don't get me wrong those moves have served the 5s well, but what happens if you end up with two five skill sets playing at teh 4 &5 and they physically don't dominate the lane and now can't go out to 12 feet or so? No problem with Burgess and Jacobsen down the road, but today Caleb is only effective down low and when you sub with Cam...you still don't get a person that scores. I think Caleb will be key the rest of the season and wish I understood what happened to his shooting after his freshman year...like Myles...like Cam...

I’m not sure Furst has shot any 3’s or even 10 footers this season. Most of his points come from dunks or put backs.

Furst would shoot the 3-ball as a freshman…now the defender can back off when he is behind the arc.

He got plenty of chances last night, he fumbled a lot of them away.

Lets please have Furst practice 2 footers before moving him out to 3pt land.
