Dylan's stats

 

[Scarlet Blind]

 

[rudad02]

Fast, Quick, & with Athletic Instincts.

 

[Arizona Knight]

We are one recruit away from a Final Four run in 2024/2025.

 

[RutgersChow]

We are one recruit away from a Final Four run in 2024/2025.

The NBA isn't going to be knocking down the door on Cliff. Sell him on that final four run. He's the missing piece.

 

[RutgersChow]

Fast, Quick, & with Athletic Instincts.

Great high school player, but he looked neither fast nor quick in that game.

 

[Roy_Faulker]

Didn’t watch the game to see how many minutes he got or what his role is - but count me a bit surprised by his stat line. Great for a 75-50 win but the US scored at will to hit 139.

 

[RUJMM78]

Harper played only 15 minutes and took very few shots in a high scoring game.

 

[RU Husky]

Lower your expectations and you’ll be a lot happier.

Kiss of Death entry.

Typical RU fan response. 😁

 

[rudad02]

Looked that way in the brief one play video in this thread.

 

[RutHut]

Dylan played well and was one of the few players willing to pass the ball.

 

[Scangg]

Don't think it'll happen at all but if the big boosters threw a huge number at Cliff we would have legit national championship contender aspirations

 

[MadRU]

Unfortunately for Dylan he was on the court with Armstrong who dominated the ball.

 

[MadRU]

USA vs Slovenia

 

[RUJMM78]

Outside shooting for both teams is lacking.Lots of fast break dunks and foul shots.

Dylan played 9:28 of the 10 minute second quarter. Six points.

Worth watching for a few minutes to hear the laughable commentary. The commentator spent the several minutes I watched reading the YouTube live stream to viewers.

#19 is right - lots of interesting dunks. Hopefully USA can beat Slovenia. I checked and 2023 is only second time Slovenia has qualified for this tournament.

 

[Scarlet Blind]

Dylan is one of the few on the team that's playing well.

Dylan Harper vs. Slovenia at the FIBA U19 World Cup:

 

[RUJMM78]

I believe USA was supposed to play on Tuesday.

 

[Scarlet Blind]

https://www.fiba.basketball/world/u19/2023/game/2706/Lebanon-USA#|tab=boxscore

Dylan 9pts, 5reb, 4ast, 4stls,
Highest +/- on the team, +40 in his 17:30 on the floor

 

[GORU2014]

The NBA isn't going to be knocking down the door on Cliff. Sell him on that final four run. He's the missing piece.

And bring back Jay Young to coach him up

 

[Roy_Faulker]

If this last draft is any indication there isn’t much room for centers anymore period.

There's angst in this thread about a guy who is one of the youngest players on the USA team, playing unselfishly, filling up the stat sheet, and playing and shooting with high efficiency?

 

[Russ Wood]

USA lost to France and will play for the Bronze medal.

Harper had 14 pts

 

[Russ Wood]

The United States fell to Turkey 84-70 at the U19 Men’s World Cup & finished 4th. So, no medal.

Harper led the team in with 15 points, 12 of which came in the fourth quarter.

 

[RUInsanity]

Lower your expectations and you’ll be a lot happier.

Same can be said about being constantly negative.

 

[RUJMM78]

The United States fell to Turkey 84-70 at the U19 Men’s World Cup & finished 4th. So, no medal.

Harper led the team in with 15 points, 12 of which came in the fourth quarter.

Other teams probably had more time playing together as compared to USA roster.

Turkey? Now there’s a b-ball power! Probably their greatest win in history. Pathetic loss.

 

[AZBlues]

Other teams probably had more time playing together as compared to USA roster.

True, and most of them play on professional European teams even though they're only 18 or 19... A lot more time to hone their skills. Some of them look more mature than the US team too.

There's room for centers that have actual skill and aren't just tall.
