Best shooter at UK since Tony Delk
I think he’s an even better pure shooter than Delk.

He ain’t nearly the all around player Delk was …because Delk was awesome on BOTH offense and defense …especially his senior year when he did everything right. Whereas Milan is far more one dimensional, but at that one dimension (shooting) he looks about as gifted as anyone we’ve had here.

The cold blanket take. He was wide open a lot last night. I think that might have been Manhattan being not that good at trying to guard him. I can't imagine he'll be that open going forward. But he's the bomb! And pope has to do better job running stuff to get him open.

Mom is pretty crafty with that floater game too.

Was he wide open all last year when he hit nearly 50% of his 3's?

Kobe Brea might have something to say about that. I thought every shot he took was going in

Yes. I don't know if delk even shot over 40%. He was just a scoring machine overall. Much better shooters in modern times: lamb, Grady, brea all just top of my head.

Momcilovic though is the best yet imo. Shot selection is part of that but if he gets a clean look its almost guaranteed. His contested/desparation shots are the only reason he even has a chance of being below 50% which is crazy.

At Iowa State, Milan hit tons and tons of threes with defenders right in his face, step back, you name it.

If they focus heavily on him other lanes will open up, which yes, they'll have to convert to easier points.

Our perimeter is developing well. We have 2 solid players, Wilkins and Williams, and 1 absolute star, Milan. Hawthorne shows flashes, especially on defense, of being a force. Zoom needs to find his niche on this team yet. Kam and Morton still are recovering and should solidify the perimeter once healthy.

I'm most concerned about the 4 position right now.
