Bleacher Report-Big 3s That Will Turn Heads in the 2014-15 C

Postby TyDerby » Sat May 24, 2014 8:30 am

Saw this on Bleacher Report today, SMU is starting to get a lot of write ups on there.

The trio: Markus Kennedy, Jr., PF; Nic Moore, Jr., PG; Emmanuel Mudiay, Fr., SG

SMU was one of the biggest surprises in the 2013-14 season, both for how well they played for most of the year and for how their late skid kept a ranked team out of the NCAA tournament. But a key addition to the Mustangs this fall should negate chances of another slide while also giving us one of the most exciting trios in the country.

Markus Kennedy, a 6'9" bruiser who began his career at Villanova, was the Mustangs' most consistent player last season. He was second in scoring at 12.4 points per game, led in rebounding (7.1) and made 53 percent of his shots while also providing solid defense via 1.2 blocks per game.

Nic Moore, a 5'9" speedster, a transfer from Illinois State, led SMU in scoring (13.6) and assists (4.9) and made a robust 43.6 percent of his three-pointers. Equally adept at scoring or facilitating, he was hard to guard in either respect.

But the big addition for 2014-15 will come from Emmanuel Mudiay, the No. 2 overall recruit in the 2015 class. At 6'5", he's made a name for himself as a point guard, but in Larry Brown's system, he'll be used at both the 1-2, creating as good a backcourt (with Moore) as any in the country.

Thankfully their will be no pressure on Mudiay when he steps on campus this fall.
GO MUSTANGS!
