Definitely put the work in during the offseason and was ready to take advantage of the minutes available with Edey gone.

It is too bad that we are not seeing this from Furst too, because we could really need more help in the post. Hard to believe that Furst won the Mr. Basketball title over Trey.

Well deserved. Is having monster games with AA numbers in that last game.

Hope he competes hard consistently & more awards will come.
