Randolph Morris

Everybody is starting to notice how good a player Morris is now, and he has improved alot. However, I bet most people don't realize that this improvement started last year. In his 21 games played last year, Morris was in double figures for all but 4 of them and shot 60.8%. He also had at least 5 rebounds in all but 3 of them. Morris has always been a productive player when he's out there. He is a career 57.9% FG shooter. His main problem was that he couldn't stay out of foul trouble. This year he is staying on the court, and his numbers are even better:

Miami (OH) - 12 pts, 10 reb
MVST - 18 pts, 9 reb
DePaul - 20 pts, 9 reb
UCLA - 11 pts, 4 reb (foul trouble = just 21 minutes)
Memphis - 18 pts, 8 reb
Charleston - 17 pts, 8 reb
North Carolina - 23 pts, 7 reb
Chattanooga - 17 pts, 7 reb

Avg. = 17 pts, 7.75 reb., 63.6 FG%

Morris also already has 12 blocked shots compared to last year's 24, and 6 assist compated to last year's 7. He is improving in every part of his game.

Hopefully Randolph will start getting the credit from the national media that he deserves. If he keeps producing like this, they'll have no choice but to notice.
