    If Jalen wants to skip his senior year so he can get to Europe sooner and start earning money all the power to him. It seems highly unlikely he leaves early next year because he is going to be drafted in the NBA. He would have to have a monster year and flip a switch that I'm not sure is there to flip.

    He's already 22 and there are hundreds of guys younger than him, and foreign players we dont even know about, with just as much athletic ability as Jalen. Everyone in the NBA is super athletic even when they dont look that way because there are guys so much more athletic than them.

    These are some of the same people proclaiming he would go pro after this year before the season even started. Just ludicrous.

    Right up there with the people who thought Trevon would go pro after watching him play 5 games.

    It's just me, and I never predicted he would leave after this year. This coming from the guy who thought it was ludicrous to believe Creighton would be 9th or 10th in the Big East back in the preseason. :)

    Do you mean pro after this season? Cause if so, that's another level of crazy from suggesting Jalen will go pro.

    While never thinking he'd go pro after the season, Trevon does look like a completely different player from the first 3 weeks of the season.

    LET HIM LOOSE!!!!!!!!

    3 shots yesterday? 3?

    Agreed, don't know what's going on. I thought the second half of the DePaul game was him breaking out of a slump, even if it ended up not being enough to win that game. He then posted a really good offensive rating against Seton Hall, but he didn't make any of his three three-point attempts, and his offensive ratings have dropped since then. He's 1-17 from three-point range since going 4-10 against DePaul and 40% overall at that point in the season.

    Knowing his shooting ability, this has to just be a bad slump. Unfortunately, the only way to break out of shooting slumps is to just keep shooting. At least he's been making his two-point shots and getting to the line at a reasonable clip.

    Freshmen hitting the 20 game wall- a typical high school season.

    Doesn't mean he can't or won't fight through it.

    Good point, but I figure Trevon is the caliber of player that should be able to rise above that in the end. I'm not expecting 45-50% from 3 like earlier in the season, but he's in a Myles-like slump.

    Without hi-jacking the thread:

    I've said it before - watch the difference in Trevon's follow through. The last two free throws he made yesterday, he extended his follow through. All shots prior to that (and during recent games), he's been flicking the ball. I think he's envisioning a made shot so desperately, that's his mechanics have gone to the wayside.
