BSL: Terps End Losing Streak; Take Down The Gators

I honestly didn't notice this live but it feels notable Wahab had 1 FGA and only got to the line once in 24 minutes, wonder if that's gonna be a permanent thing where the plan isn't for him to be a major part of the offense

It feels like he sees a double every trip down.  The Terps need to make more 3's before we see what he is capable on the offensive end.  

 

Maybe, if Manning uses Reese with him, like he did at times yesterday, we can see some high-low to get both more shots.

So they tried to get him involved. He mishandled a couple passes and he didn't make decisive moves in other situations that should have been baskets. He didn't have a great game. I'm starting to get worried about his stone hands.

Hands aren't great.  
Issues passing out of a double-team are definitely real.
He puts the ball down low too often.
He does move pretty good, but not so great laterally. MD does a lot of switching, or at-least Turgeon did, and Reese is light years better there. 

Can disrupt shots, but Reese is also better at shot blocking. 

Did have 8 boards yesterday.  And I've noticed he is enthusiastic about supporting his teammates when on the bench.

There were a couple instances where he had a lane to score because the help defender was late, but he hesitated.  I think both passing out and not being more aggressive to the basket are two sides of the same problem: not moving decisively after receiving a pass.
