On his Instagram page, Shamorie Ponds, the Brooklyn-bred starting point guard and all Big East Player, announced his intention to go into the NBA Draft with an agent.
Ponds averaged 20 points per game as a junior, a slight drop from his previous year’s average, but showed some of the skills he needed to show — the ability to pass (assisting on 29% of his teammates’ made shots in a better offense), the ability to play within the team concept and better shooting from beyond the arc (35% from three) and inside the arc (52% from two).
