Went pretty much as expected. I've never seen Cumberland play other than small clips and highlight videos so this is more of first impressions more than anything. He quietly had a double double and no doubt showed he was the best player on the floor. He has a very solid, college ready build but I didn't see him use it much posting up and what not, I know he's a gaurd but I was hoping to see him fight through contact and demand the ball on the post more since he's so built, didn't see that. Other than that he has a nice smooth shot (needs to improve ft shooting) and is really solid as a guard. He showed great ball-handling ability as well as great passing. He was also very VERY good in man D (which is all Wilmington played) and should fit very well in our defense, so I was really happy to see that.
Overall, I was hoping to see more dominance on the offensive end, wasn't disappointed nor surprised, but I was a lot more impressed with his abilities as a guard and his defensive play.
Side note - Wilmington is an extremely good team, I have no idea how they lost one. I'd be shocked if they don't win state.
Thanks for the update.
