Can’t recall if he’s the one who shooshed the crowd when he hit a shot in the second half when they took the lead or tied but I think it may have been him. Salty.
clips and performance show he's the read deal.

Took a bit to adjust, but once he got rolling he was great -- His last 10 to 15 games were ridiculously good, and was one of the top 5 players in the conference as a true Frosh (the only other underclassman in the Summit who was better last year was likely Grant Nelson who's going to test the NBA and probably transfer to a top program if he doesn't go to the NBA)
On Rohde - 10/11 dunks, At the rim 87/145 60% w/ only 18.4% assisted (i.e., he can get to the rim) - and in the clip you can see he's able to break down off the dribble and either get to the rim or distribute (he's an excellent passer)
