Grade Sam Thompson season

C-.

Good for a highlight, but a lot of times you wouldn't know Thompson was on offense. Solid defender. Times where he had some solid moments on offense, but most of the time, he was a ghost. I don;'t know what else to say about him.

D

He should have been so much more

I gave him a D, but probably should have been a C due to defense and dunks. Just never really progressed.

Learn to shoot

D for disappointing.

D.............he can't shoot. I love the kid for his highlight dunks, he was a solid defender...............but his offense skills were a letdown.

I am going to give Thompson a bit of a break and give him a B-.

He was never really a shooter, but he developed a little bit in that regard. If he wasn't on for that Zona game, OSU loses by 40.

He was a highlight reel waiting to happen with his dunks, and probably blocked more shots than Williams and McDonald combined.

High motor/effort guy.

Can't agree with that, I think his shooting #s were down from the year before.

He is a 3 that shoots 68% from the line and less than 30% from 3pt.

He seemed the type of guy who was content with the flashy dunks rather than working on the other facets of his game. Maybe I'm just sour grapes at the end of the season, but he just doesn't strike me as the hardest worker (not that any of them did)
