Both McDaniels and Stewart appear to have been pretty overrated.Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Tue Nov 08, 2022 5:41 pmI still don't get how they couldn't win with Jayden McDaniel, Quade Green, and that guy who was the #1 Forward in the nation out of HS(Stewart?).
Stewart didn't have the technical skills offensively to carry a team. He was basically just a bruiser that played way to out of control. He had no outside shot which kills you in today's game. He had no touch around the rim. It was basically just back you down and dunk it or hit a layup. Or he just out hustled you for a rebound and got a free quick bucket. He's always going to be more of a backup big man in the pros
McDaniels was really immature and had little control over his body. He had a decent shot but it was a nightmare watching him handle the basketball. He averaged 3.2 turnovers and 3.3 personal fouls per game which is a lot.
Quade was already a burnout by the time he arrived at UW. He was an OK college player... not really above average in any skill set. He was a poor outside shooter, he turned the ball over a lot, he played out of control when driving... just bleh.
Stars mean a little bit, but I'm already more impressed with Mennifield as a true frosh than I was impressed with Green's game.
