Tough dude, just hit the floor hard. Popped right back up (thankfully).

Larry will teach him to use his legs when shooting FTs . . . hopefully . . . :-)

I still think he's SMU bound.

Mudiay is going to get fouled a lot -- he's got to be 80%+ from the charity stripe. Otherwise, teams will just jump with an expendable big guy and foul him all day long (body will get too abused over the course of a long season).

Needs to use his legs more in his release.

Around 75% is fine with me.

Yeah, I was going to say 70%+. The point is it can't be a liability. Needs to be a strength.

he's missed a bunch of Free Throws and 3 balls in about the 5 games I've watched. Don't think he's a particularly strong outside shooter. He's an unusually great playmaker who can drive to the basket seemingly at will

19 points 6 assists

Nice Review:

"SMU’s Emmanuel Mudiay was a walking highlight-reel all night long, showcasing the up-and-under reverse lay-up on multiple occasions, and a crowd-pleasing double-pump spin lay-up."

I agree, no reason for MT to add SMU to his list unless they are now top of list. If KU or UT were his heavy leans, then you gotta think he had cooled on them while warming to SMU, IMO. :D

Can't wait to watch the game in the AM, DVR'ing at 3AM.

as I watched him missing FTs with that "all wrist" shooting style, I thought the same thing...use your legs. he will be on the floor at crunch time so that part of his game will have to improve
