Gosh. Wonderful news. They way he was holding is arm seemed alarming.

DJ said in a post game interview said he thought he bruised it. but it mostly scared him because it was his hurt shoulder. But said he’s fine. No issue now

I've torn my labrum and had that same surgery, same scar even...that was 5 yrs ago and it still freaks me out, 4 months out and it was very tender...those shoulder muscles can do some weird spasms with over use...glad he's good to go, he showed the world what his potential is today.

The schedule isn’t too brutal if we need to rest him. March is when it matter.

Although he needs to play as much point as he can. He’s gonna have some ups and downs and Id rather him play as much as he can before the tournament.

Right now it isn’t necessarily his point guard skills we need, it’s his ability to take people off the dribble and create. We severely lack that ability. Fresh and Darius just really can’t score. Ryan is just a shooter and limited against athletic guys.

DJ just is physically a better player. Sam too. Need them both to play high level ball in March.

DJ has a nose for the ball. He gets rebounds, makes the other team pay for a bad cross court pass. He seems to have a good feel for setting guys up and his shot selection is really good for a kid that's played so little.

That is part of being a point guard IMO. He is the only viable option to take people off the dribble to create which is when he makes his best passes. He has a NBA body at 6-5 and 200+ pounds. He has great vision and he has really good instincts. You can't teach that. You either have it, or you don't. DJ has it.

I’d say he’s our most versatile player from a skill standpoint since T-Will. Really adds a little of everything.

Some people wonder why recruiting is super important, a guy like DJ is why. Having a superior athlete with good size just adds a bit extra that can’t be coached.
