Good morning.

Yesterday, Scotty Pippen Jr. declared for the NBA Draft, but Vanderbilt might have also gotten his replacement for next season:
Ezra Manjon averaged 13.9 ppg and 3.6 apg in three years at UC Davis, and he’ll now be coming to Vanderbilt, where he’ll be asked to replace Pippen at the point. There’s some risk here, obviously: some good mid-major players are just that, and sometimes it doesn’t translate to a power conference. And there’s a lot to not like in Manjon’s shooting percentages: he shot 20 percent from three-point range last season.
