    He did have one more year if he so opted,
    He will be pursuing a pro career of some sort.

    Good kid - very athletic. Didn't seem to assert or develop, though he did hit some 3s, which were a lesser part of his game in 20-21.

    That's a shame. I thought Duriji had more facets of his game to be developed before he went pro.

    I hope he does well. Lots of potential, just needs a little more assertiveness to go along with his physical skills.

    He could get a contract for G league. If he shows out in workouts maybe free agent.
    Has some skills. Reminds me of Finny-Smith.
    Needs to get 100% healthy.

    Seems like he had more talent than he showed under White. A guy with his athleticism at the 4 and the ability to shoot out to the 3 point line should have been a more consistent contributor. Especially in the rebounding department, where we have to admit he was pretty disappointing.

    I would have been interested to see what Golden could have done with him, if he finally could have raised his game in a more organized system. Certainly a good offense should be able to work with a “stretch 4” with some high end athleticism. As a pro prospect his offensive weakness is obviously that he has no post game at all. Basically: it’s 3’s or dunks.

    By all accounts during preseason, he was the most improved player. By the time SEC season began, he appeared to have regressed. Perhaps it was due to a lingering injury, but last year must have been a disappointment for him

    Allright @akaGatorhoops - out with it. What's with the : ) thread on the 'Gas? I still think your kid hacked your GC account again.

    Likely plays in Europe or another International league. Russia is out now.
