Q7 Playing some of his best ball
Do you feel like you're playing some of the best ball you've played yet in your career?
Definitely. I feel like I think I'm just being more of an impactful player and being more of a point guard, more of a leader, just being vocal.
Q9 Growth since freshman year
What do you feel like you've made the most growth from your freshman year?
I think just learn how to play point guard. Coming in, I don't think I was a true point guard, but just every day watching Elliot Cadeau, watching how he demands the game and put everyone in place. I think I'm just learning from them every day, and I'm slowly growing into that position.
Q12 Developing returners amid newcomers
You don't think it makes it like any harder with you guys bringing a lot more new players in for some of the returning players' development?
I mean, I think for certain schools maybe, but I think all of us, we have a common goal. We all just want to get better and we want to win a natty. So we just want to win. So it's not like any agendas. So I think it's pretty easy. Like if I have something that Oscar wants to know about, I'm not going to keep it away from him. I'm going to tell him because I want him to get better too.
