Is Alleyne a potential all-conference player at some point?


I feel like we don't talk about him enough on the boards, we talk about Cone going off for 18 on Saturday while Alleyne did the exact same thing and it felt routine. It felt that way because it quietly has become true, which is really odd to think.

From a pure scoring perspective he's our best option as he can score at the basket, behind the arc, and at the line. He had a straight up horrid game vs VMI where he went 0-7 from deep and only scored 4 points, but if you remove that here are his scoring numbers.

13.7 PPG
~61% effective FG%
45% from inside the arc (10-22)
52% from outside the arc (16-31)
88% from the FT line (14-16)

He dropped 20 on Villanova and 13 on the Clemson defense combing for 7-11 from deep against them.

Now he doesn't distribute the ball or rebound particularly well, but his defense has been much improved. His scoring is up 3ppg over last year, if he gets a little better at the other aspects he could average something like 16ppg, 4rbs, 3ast, 1stl by his senior year. For comparison, Trent Forrest was 2nd team last year and averaged 12-4-4.
