WOW!
Ok we all know that Wells had a awesome game, scored about 24,25, and shot 6-8 from 3.
And most of us knew he could play the 3, 4, 2 spots.
And most of know he is athletic, has potential
But I didn't know;
That he would have jump out of gym, NBA like freakish athleticism.
That he can rim protect, block shots, rebound awesomely, play good lateral, vertical, defense, draw charges, consistently guard SG, 2,3,4's well.
That he can dribble as well as Allen Iverson, that he can BREAK ANKLES like how Iverson , schooled Jordan.
That the style of his talents, abilities, is like crossing Iverson, Jordan, Kobe, Malik Sealy, Sean Elliot, LeBron James, Reggie Miller, Glen Rice, Dominique Wilkins, etc, into 1 combined composite player.
That he can almost at will, slither, contort, twist, slash, penetrate, drive, beat off dribble, drive, CREATE OWN SHOT, score inside, finish at rim, around, under, over, etc, people, players, defenders.
That he can post up inside at the high post.
That he can hit turn around, fade aways, midrange jumpers, tear droppers, runners, almost score at will sometimes, all in addition to how awesomely he shoots 3's.
He is a mismatch for 2's and is a better 2, then most 2's SG's
And he is a better 3 then most 3's, and he is a better 4 then most 4's.
He TOTALLY SCHOOLED, had 3 Iverson vs Jordan, breaking ankles, to score moments in the game.
And he is a decent passer, getting assist, and takes care of, doesn't turn ball over that often, so if all of WSU's PG's were injured, he could run the offense either as PG, or out of the high post, and because of Jones, Rice, Jaki, he could run the Chicago triangle offense.
And because of Wells, Rice, Jones, and Jaki, which has to be one of the better foursomes in bball, how do you stop all 4? One of the 4 will probably TORCH the opposing defense at some point in game.
I thought he Wells would score about 8,9,10 ppg, in about 20 to 30 minutes per game.as a 7,8 man, bench player, for instant 3 point offense.
I thought that about 83% of his points would come from 3.
And when he struggled, I didn't think he would be good, let alone this good, etc.
Now I am NOT saying he is a NBA player or prospect, BUT IF IF IF he gets even better next season, and if he stays, etc, then he has the POTENTIAL to be a FUTURE NBA PROSPECT, which potential, I didn't see earlier, and only see now IF IF IF he continues to improve, and improves enough.
But he does have the Potential. Whether.he realizes that potential or not, that remains.to be seen, but I think he has about a 59% chance to do so.
What a AWESOME player.
Been a long time since WSU has had this kind of player.
I think that Guy Williams would be the last player WSU had that was like this, or close to like this.
Wells is about 6-7.5 to about 6-8 to about 6-8.5, and has NBA frame, and is the PROTO HYBRID 2,3,4
Guy Williams 6-8 to 6-8.5 to 6-9.
