Yes,Yes,Yes!!
Skilled big guard/small forward with attitude and a frame that will just pack on more muscle. Length to be lockdown defender at multiple positions with a good offensive game.

Very nice skillset. Reminds me of a Talen Horton Tucker kind of game -- before THT dropped some lbs, increased his athleticism, and shot up the rankings.
Not enough quicks right now or a consistent enough shooter (seemingly) to be a college guard, but more skilled with the ball and a more creative scorer than the average forward.
He'd be a great addition. Perfect replacement for Pickett (after '19-'20?) at the 3.
Gardner and Ledlum together with a 6'11 shot blocker/rebounder in the middle? Oof.

I see Naji Marshall when I watch clips of Gardner but I'll take a THT clone any day... |

Young Man is Tough! Coach Ewing and the staff have a really good eye for under appreciated talent! Hoping the staff goes 2/2 this weekend!

I like how much he uses both hands to handle in traffic, and his use of both of them at the rim...that's prime. He plays going to the rim through contact and has consistent arc on his jumper.

I watched a lot of film on Myron Gardner this weekend. The kid is baller. Highly impressed with his athleticism and tenacity. When he get in better shape and conditioning, woohoo watch out.
Really good size at 6'5-6'6". Tremendous first step, highly underrated handle, ability to finish well with either hand. Can create his own shot or for others. Improving perimeter shot but loves to attack the basket searching for contact. Highly athletic with upside in that department because he's not yet in prime conditioning or shape. Really being slept on by a lot of programs. I think he would be tremendous get as a combo guard that can easily move over to the wing!

Selfishly, I'd like to have Myron and Chris as Hoyas next season.

This kid likes contact. Can't teach that. Sign me up for that package.

Watching film of Gardner, Ledlum and Shannon you can easily envision a line-up with a 6'10" rim protector, two small speedy forwards with great handles and two speedy guards (McClung and Akinjo). Run, run, run, run, run like a sonuvagun to an NCAA championship. Speed kills!

Run, run, run, run, run like a sonuvagun to an NCAA championship. Speed kills! For some sick, masochistic reason, I recently re-watched the 1996 BE finals game against UConn. One key take-away for me was how quick up the floor Iverson and Page played the game. And Jerome Williams as a PF rebounding and leading the break with a great handle was a real weapon. We had a lot of speed on that team and it certainly killed most opponents (unfortunately, not UConn that night...still hurts...)… |

Wow. A double whammy reference to 1996 UConn and 1980 Iowa, and it's not even Halloween yet. You are one sick puppy...! Hahaha... |
