You cannot guarantee that. Silly to even try. The guy will have to prove he can hit 3’s consistently for our center to follow him all the way out to the perimeter. Teams know that is what they want you to do and until a guy with an average of 8 points per game starts dropping rainbows, his shot is preferable over leaving Morgan or opening a lane for Romeo.
Fitzner has attempted over 300 threes in his career and has connected on over 40% of them. That is consistent in any sense of the word imaginable. I don’t know or pretend to know how IU plans to use Fitzner but I’d imagine it’d be in a PnR action with Romeo and if teams aren’t going to attempt to show when Fitzner flashes they will likely pay to a degree. I agree that teams will look to stop Romeo first and foremost, but that is why a guy like Fitzner can be of so much value. His 8 ppg are severely misleading because his ppg went down with his minutes decrease to give way to an AA in front of him. His efficiency and 40 per numbers have all stayed consistent throughout his career. He averaged 8 points in 15 minutes last year, give him 20-25 and I’m not sure that number jumps back up to 10-12 points like it did earlier in his career before Jock stepped on campus.
