Hendricks said that Sexton is one of his favorite players to watch. I didn’t think Cy could hate him more than he does but I was wrong.
Jazz draft Taylor Hendricks at 9
- Thread starter Elizah Huge
- Start date
People made fun of the comp but a poor-man's Jaren Jackson is not a horrible comp.

not sure whether to laugh or cry, but i have to be honest and the initial reaction was a chuckle
When in doubt... cry... even through chuckle... cry ;(
Plenty of minutes to go around. Especially considering Lauri can play 3 positions extremely well. He's one of the most versatile players in the NBA. I think we can find a place for a rookie to carve out minutes if he's decent. We have no depth without him
Watching the other HOU matchup. Unfortunately not a lot of full UCF games on the web:
Summary:
- Quiet offensive first half. Had some shot opportunities, but couldn't make a lot of them. Had that nice and1 but otherwise did not do much.
- Showed off his versatile shot again, but no makes this half
- Very good defensive half, performed a lot of different coverages
- Good effort against bigger players inside, but needs to put on weight

1H
- First play is a set play is a cross screen in horns. Walker trips (on his own teammate). Open 3 is a miss.
- UCF big man in short roll, Hendricks wiede open in the corner but doesn't get the pass
- Next defensive possession, rotates down leaving Walker....not much of an effort from anyone on UCF to rotate
- Quick release corner 3 against decent closeout, miss
- Semi transition missed tip in
- Pretty good effort to body up on defense against Walker in the post....doesn't give up ground, but Walker not phased either
- Very bad closeout from Sasser, Hendricks dribbles right past him into a mid range pull up. and1 (defender landed under him)
- Walker tries to iso, HOU teammte literally walks right in front giving him no option to drive (gotta love NCAA basketball). Has to shoot up a pullup middy and misses. Good defense, but was assisted by HOU player.
- Trapped on wing, but finds open man in corner
- Another quick release three from corner, miss
- He seems really aware this game, not ball watching and doing a good job keeping an eye on Walker
- Good multiple action defensive possession. Cut off a few different drives in one play
- Switches onto Sasser and gets cooked on the perimeter, bad technique
- Better job pursuing the guard this time in PnR defense, but nice passing by HOU guard
- Really good defensive possession. Tags the roller, rotates to pick up man in corner off of instinct. Turns into an iso because his closeout was good, stays in front, somehow HOU guard drains it in his face.
- Hesitates to shoot against the closeout this time
- A little late on defensive rotation, but not his fault. HOU big dunks it in his area but he had no chance.
- Gets post entry pass deflected
- Miscommunication on PnR coverage leaves him in no mans land, gets beat off the dribble but Walker can't finish
- Off the screen semi contested three moving to his left. Badly misses and hits the glass
- Putting in good effort, but HOU has a lot of physical and athletic bigs that are pushing him around a bit
- Switches on to perimeter player who challenges him. Great defense forces a missed pullup
- Loose ball falls to him and gets a bunny, Gets fouled and misses, but should have finished it
- Huge rejection on Sasser as they meet at the basket. Sasser had no chance.
- Pretty good hard hedge PnR defense forces a floater
