Sounds like a great addition. If he can shoot 3's we need him!! Didn't realize he was just a walk-on.

Nice addition. Will be interesting to see how he does and how coach uses him.

Did I read "shooting over 66% from distance" correctly?
"Distance" = 3 point line?
Even allowing for mediocre opposing defenses that suggests to me the kid might just possibly have the makings of an adequate shooter.
I'm trying to imagine if that might be a skill that Stack could figure out how to use, some kind of way.

I read “over 60%” - but that’s still pretty darn impressive, and very useful in a guy who’s 6’4” (6’5” ??? - conflicting reports - the way they report height he’s probably 6’3”).
Glad to have him!

This is from 2 years ago. Some sort of travel team thing for highly academic kids.

He does look legit 6-5. If he was 6-8, the guy would be a good d-1 forward.

That was over a specific 4-game stretch, but still impressive.

I've never saw that many white kids on a basketball court except in gym class.

Has anyone ever determined if Presley Patterson is a walk-on or on scholarship?
