Georgetown forward Marcus Derrickson is an intriguing player. At 6’7” and 250 pounds, he has a big body equipped for rebounding while also sporting the height, shooting touch, and footwork of a wing player. He was sixth on the Hoyas in usage rate (18.1%), as the freshman conceded to older players to facilitate most of the offense. Still, at times, he was able to display flashes of what he could produce at his best.
After a summer of improving his game and Hoyas star guard D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera graduating, Derrickson could potentially step up and have a big year for a program coming off of it’s worst season in over a decade.
