ACCSports.com breaks down incoming transfer Devon Daniels

With Al Freeman gone, NC State is in need of an efficient three-level scorer and most everyone is looking at Utah transfer, Devon Daniels, to fill that void.

We’ve weighed in on Devon Daniels and what he can bring to the table for NC State this coming season. Pretty much every metric point to him being an impact player in Raleigh.

ACCSports.com goes in-depth (with gif breakdowns) and really hits on some great points/stats.

Check out some of the stats they unsurfaced…

– Daniels attempted just 35 three-pointers, but he landed 14 of those launches (40 3P%). According to Synergy, Daniels shot 43.2 percent (59.1 eFG%) on jump shots as a freshman.

– When Daniels was a shooter out of the pick-and-roll, he shot 57.1 percent and scored one point per possession — a top 50 number nationally (minimum 50 possessions

– He shot an excellent 69.7 percent and scored 1.41 points per possession on attempts at the basket

Those are some very impressive numbers for a freshman who never really got much shine. Remember, he was overshadowed by first-round pick Kevin Kuzma (now with the Lakers)
