Way back in February, just before the NBA went on hiatus and the NCAA tournament was cancelled, BYU forward Yoeli Childs — a potential second-round pick on the outskirts of most NBA draft boards — spearheaded an upset victory over No. 2 Gonzaga on his senior night, scoring 28 points on 10-of-19 shooting to go with 10 rebounds. As a 6-foot-8, 225-pound versatile big man with strong shoulders and a barrel-shaped chest, Childs had his way against stiffer competition in that game just as he did for most of the season: Going to work inside, outside, and nowhere in-between while deriving the lion’s share of his offense from around the basket and the three-point line.
