"I think he plays with confidence that when he's out there, you don't notice him, Kelly said. And he's 6'5, you should notice him."

"We were really pleased with his first college game. We think he makes us better. It's only going to get better for him as he gets more comfortable and understands the routine. He went to class for the first time last week. We're going to be patient with him, but we're going to play our best players, and he's definitely going to play."
