Coming into the season, the expectation for Roddy Gayle Jr. was to learn on the job, but not necessarily in a starting role. As the season progressed, it became evident that he, along with Bruce Thornton and Felix Okpara are the future in Columbus. Thornton already broke through, Okpara has had his moments but this tournament has really elevated how we view Gayle Jr. He’s shooting with confidence, especially beyond the arc as he scored 20 points going 5/6 from three. There are still aspects of his game that need work, ball handing and decision making, but expect some growth in those areas during the offseason. Calling Gayle Jr. a star is a bit premature, but if he continues his growth, it could be happening.
