He is a guy who could contribute defensively because of his athleticism, but offensively his role was almost exclusively to stand stationary behind the 3pt line and take set shots.
As a result an amazing 76.5% of his career field goal attempts have come from behind the arc, which he converted at a poor 32% rate because nothing in his time prior to MU or during his career at MU would suggest he was adept at shooting 3 pointers. In 3 full seasons he made a total of 32 baskets inside the 3 point line and attempted a total of 72 free throws in his career because he basically never used his athleticism to put any kind of pressure on the defense or attack the rim.
