DD has always been a mystery to me. I love his ability to shoot, which I believe can be a game changer. And he always seems to have a good ability to see the floor. But as stated, he does not handle pressure well, which leads to bad decisions.
I just can't envision him as a stud or a GoTo type player. Even as a senior, I see him as a really nice complimentary player.
I see the stud progression ... Jordan -> Pierre -> Cooke -> ???
That progression appears to skip DD. Too early to say who the next stud person is, but I put the candidates in the current freshman and incoming Landers.
And honestly that kind of scares me. Seems at risk of having this nice building, moving momentum... and then a gap.
