Garrison

He got the one block out on the wing that Refs could not do anything about. The other foul was one where you just knew they were calling before he even jumped. He had a great 2nd half. He has confidence for sure. Williams did not play great but also did not stink it up like some saying. He had 8 rebounds, he was in the head of the 2 centers and he bruised them both up legally. He pushed, pulled bumped in a way that they did not call a single foul. He took way too many shots but he did make a few, ugly shot for sure. That one rebound was crazy, went up high and went up hard for the ball. He also looks good bringing the ball up the court. Kerr was in their heads as well. Was fun to watch him. He just needs better shot selection. One shot was not his fault, no time on the clock, 2 others were too far out. That those 3 away and he was like 2 of 6 or something like that, more respectable.
 
Rewatching the 2nd half, and I failed to notice the first time all of the little things Garrison did to help us will this victory. Hell of an effort (and the foul on Proctor on the 3 was BS. He did not come down straight up and down).
He was pretty bad 1st half. 2nd half he really surprised me. How about that 3 he hit? Toe on the line so it was a two. But wow. Who knew he had that range? And nice form on his jumper too. Active on the glass, always ready for a tip in. Solid defender. If he comes back next year, he's a problem.
 
I’m not normally a “next year” kind of guy, but somewhat getting back to the old model of CBB, it’s nice to see guys who show flashes of potential that you know could take a huge leap in the next season. Oweh and Garrison could be cornerstones to another top 5 team again
Forgot who. But some writer or analyst said he's putting UK #1 if Oweh comes back.
 
The dude is young and rough around the edges but you can see the hunger in his eyes when he is on the court. Like NumberOne said above, his range surprised me. When he shot it I was like no no no...yes yes yes. That ability opens up the entire offense and makes it possible to play him at the four in a pinch.
