Seven over 7

[BillyC80]

Just noticed that RU has 7 guys averaging over 7 points per game through our first six games (most in the B1G).

Not sure if that’s a good thing, but something like that was predicted before the season started.

I do like the fact that we have that many guys who are legit threats to score (plus a pass-first guard off the bench who leads the team in assists per minute).

Edit: By comparison we had 4 guys who exceeded that average last year, although it was for the whole season, obviously including all our tougher conference games.

We have 8 guys playing major minutes. The scoring is well spread out.

I imagine one upside to that is you have intense competition by many capable players trying to earn those (and more) minutes.

Not sure I understand this stat. Does this mean that Jacob is the most selfish player on the team and Paul is the least selfish? Meaning, the amount of time they have the ball when they’re on the court?

I think usage is shots and turnovers.

Haven't been able to catch a game yet this year but last year we had a bunch of guys who could catch fire but you never knew which one it would be going into the game. Made for some slow starts. Wonder if we're in that position again this year
