Our #9 pick, Sochan, failed to take some open shots and got three out of 6 attempted shots blocked. A couple were bunnies when he got in close to the basket and one on a perimeter attempt that looked really bad. He's no K Bates-Diop fer sure.
I;d say his defense was average. When you're a #9 pick and the main thing people talk about is what color you dyed your hair for this game, then you might not be what we are looking for or hoped to get. I remain to be convinced that we made the right choice over Tari Eason who continues to shine in Houston after a great Summer League. Perhaps "wild and erratic"" combined with physical talent simply means playing with a lot of energy and making good things happen. Oh well, we will have lots of time to think about that in the future, eh?.
