performances. He's shown flashes of brilliance and toughness and certainly appears to be on the verge of being in a position to receive all-conference recognition next year, possibly this year if he continues. But 2 great games don't mean a guy's ready to go pro.
Prior to the last two monster performances he had just 2 games shooting over 50% from the field, and 2 games over 50% from 3 pt range
In spite of going 6-7 from 3 in the last 2 games, his season 3 pt % is still less than Dru, Mark, and Pickett.
It took until game 20 of this season to record more than 1 made 3 pt shot for a second time. His assist/turnover ration is a bit over 1 this year, slightly better than last.
These last two games he certainly has found himself able to play at a higher level. But two games don't make a guy a pro, and he has no business turning pro anywhere until he shows he can perform like this with some regularity.
