    Anytime Carolina misses, I am now surprised when they don't get at least one offensive rebound.

    Disappointing end, hopefully makes Nowell want to come back to win more next year.

    Where's he gonna go? His draft stock has plummeted in my mind.
    I dont think its plummeted, it wasnt every really that high... He has only ever been listed on 1-2 pre draft sheets. and that was as a mid to late 2nd round pick.

    Nowell should come back, work on his 3 and ball handling, and then enjoy/benefit from playing with a legitimate PG and bigman as the scoring off guard on a better team.

    As it stands, his game doesnt exist in the NBA.

    If he goes (im betting he does) his ranking will drop further after workouts/combine because he has below average athleticism for a NBA 2 guard.
    He needs to come back if he doesn't want to end up being the next Tony Wroten.

    In any other P5 conference this is a .500 team who's playing in the NIT. We don't have a pg, Dom Green and Timmons play meaningful minutes, etc etc.

    We have Nowell, they have a 8 Nowell's or better.

    Oh fuck off. This team is absolutely worthy of their tourney bid. We're just playing a team that is a trendy championship pick that is loaded with talent. This isn't hard to diagnose.
    This. UNC's 6th man would be UW's best player. This was a tough draw.

    Jesus Crispy Christ, I can't remember the last time he didn't get a drive blocked.

    Seriously. UW is losing convincingly to the number 3 fucking team in America...we aren't there yet

    Jesus fucking Christ, there is zero similarity between Nowell and Wroten's game. If you want program comps Nowell is a less athletic Ross with a better jumper.
