MJ Collins just isn’t a very good basketball player

The kid does has NBA level athleticism and is a good defender, but something is terribly wrong if someone who is as poor offensive player as him is getting significant minutes. He’s shooting 28% from the field and 23% from 3 which is just so terrible especially for a guard. Couldn’t really find any other that ACC player who get significant minutes with their shooting percentages in that ballpark. Not a great playmaker, ball handler, horrible shooting form and very poor basketball IQ. Probably the worst offensive player getting minutes in the ACC, and somehow is a consistent starter for us. He just straight isn’t close to being developed enough to be playing at the ACC level and shows how bad the roster management is if MY feels he needs to play him.

Players who are struggling with their shooting help teams other ways

It’s not just about the box score I agree

Watch CMY's presser after game and he'll explain why he gets minutes, esp.

He plays good defense and can help with ball handling. Those are valuable

I disagree with that take, except for the obvious poor shooting.

Every kid on a P5 bball team is a pretty damn good basketball player**

And most of them still won’t play in the NBA

Was at game. He played his butt off. Pretty simple

Thank you. THIS is the reason.
