btownqb Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 He ended up with really good numbers. I know he was on a crap team, but he still preformed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PritchardPutBack Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 I do love how he has been able to get a role after working through the G League his rookie year. I know Crean's last year was a mess for a bunch of reasons but when he dropped from being a projected lottery pick right after his freshman season to being a definite second round pick when he actually went to the draft, it had me worried about how he would do in the NBA. Still think it's crazy he had that one game last year where he shot 14-14 from the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Bryant is one of my favorite Hoosiers of the past decade. This is a guy with a good motor, who worked his rear ended off, and displayed tremendous enthusiasm. The amount of improvement he has shown—even continuing into his pro career—proves his work ethic. That recruiting class (Anunoby, Bryant, Morgan) will always be one of my all time favorites. Kudos to Tom Crean for putting that class together.

Even though it feels like he's been gone forever that's how young he was at IU. Glad he got his lifetime $ so at the very least if anything happens from here he got $25M.

Yeah he was young for the grade he was suppose to be in. He had just turned 17 when his FR year started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about the early projections for the 2017 draft (one after his sophomore year that he went into) in the off-season between his freshman and sophomore year. Not saying he was projected to be a one-and-done lottery pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is why these kids want to get to the nba so soon...even if their game isn’t fully evolved. They can be set for life before they can drink. Hard to begrudge them that.

I honestly don't remember him ever being projected that high, but beating UK, Kansas and UNC in the same calendar year probably helped his stock.

TheWatShot Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 In today's NBA, 22 is a grown a$$ man. Anything over 30 is considered old, and if you're over 35, you're geriatric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we could expect another 1.5p, 1r added to his avg during his "prime 3 years"... so like 14p 7r 3a 1b. Thats pretty solid numbers. It could happen.
