I think we can agree that Dru Smith is over-rated as a shooter (his numbers at Evansville were against weaker competition), he is too slow on defense (thus his high number of fouls) and he too often turns over the ball for a 4th junior. His dribbling also slows down the offense.
Mark Smith, if healthy and more consistently present in games he is healthy, could be one of his best players. Same said for Tilmon. But never a consistent effort from either player.
Pinson is the most improved player. When he scores in double figures, Missouri wins.
Brown has tailed off the past few games, but has potential to be an impactful player.
Pickett is a glue guy. And can be a difference maker, but also is a disappearing act.
Watson needs to work on his game. Having a guy in his third year at MU is important for program development. But he has to earn playing time.
Jackson could be a star. Will be fun to watch next season.
