24 and 7 in just 18 minutes last night, that is unreal production. He reminds me a ton of Siakam. I think he's going to make a big name for himself in the tournament where we might not have fouls called against us for every little thing.

Are you being serious? I do like Eason, but not nearly a top 10 pick this summer.

Great player for us but he won't sniff the lottery picks.

How tall is he realistically? If he measures < 6’6” how much will that hurt him?

He's second (a slim second) only to Oscar Tshiebwe in overall efficiency. He gets it done on both ends of the floor. He's arguably the most efficient player Wade has ever had when you consider his play on offense and defense.

He ranks in the top 10 of the SEC in ALL of these categories:

Points per game (7th)
Steals per game (6th)
Blocks per game (9th)
Rebounds per game (9th)
FT% (10th)
FG% (3rd)

His advanced number are even better!:

Effective FG% (2nd)
Total Rebound % (5th)
Offensive rebound % (6th)
Defensive rebound % (9th)
Steal % (2nd)
Block % (4th)
Offensive rating (6th)
Defensive rating (1st)
Win share per 40 mins (1st)

Yet, he is only playing 24 minutes per game. That may not even be in the top 20 in the SEC.

Part of that is on him with the fouls. But there is no reason your best player should be 5th...on the team!..in minutes played. I like Wade, but his personnel decisions this year have been curious, at best. I think it is a matter of a analytically based guy getting too far in those weeds. Sometimes the "data" is right in front of you. Play your best player MORE...sit the guy (Reid) who gives you nothing most nights out.

His production is great but the dude fouls out every game.
