Newly acquired transfer junior guard, Jamal Bieniemy, from The University of Oklahoma, is expected to make an impact this season for the Miners. Bieniemy is joining the team as the point guard the Miners missed last year.
The recruit started 31 games from his time at Oklahoma and averaged 5.2 points per game, four rebounds, 2.8 assists per game, and shot from beyond the arc at 34.6%.
While being a true point guard and ball distributor, Bieniemy’s shooting from beyond the arc is the second most important thing he brings to the table coming into this season as the Miners struggled from the 3-point line with no pure shooter.
