That's the Isaiah Evans that is this team's second option.
That four-game stretch, especially Aft in the response to Duke's loss in one of his worst games in a Duke uniform, that's got to be extremely, extremely encouraging.
If Isaiah Evans is shooting 40% from three,
This is a different Duke team.
And he's not just, again, we've talked about this evolving throughout the year.
Again, yesterday, he wasn't just a spot-up shooter.
He was someone who was, once he made a few threes, once teams were cheating on him on those flare screens.
He loves those flare screens, but he's developed a counter move.
He's developed a, oh, they're cheating off me on the flare screens.
They're over-helping.
They're over-pursuing.
I'm going to just immediately put the ball on the floor and
and get it into the paint off of that.
And a lot of times he was doing that to actually facilitate rather than doing that just to put up a floater, doing that to attack the rim.
He still has to improve finishing at the rim.
I think we all know that.
I liked how against SMU, he was attacking, he was getting two feet in the paint, but then he was making that pass out and leading to that ball rotation.
So again, rather than put up
an okay shot off of a flare screen that was contested.
He was leading the offense and getting the ball rotation started to get to a better shot off of that.
