The Syracuse men’s basketball team produces more NBA draft picks beyond what would be expected given the rankings of incoming recruits than any other team in the country.
It’s only a matter of time before SU’s inability to get to the line catches up with it. Syracuse only attempted 12 free throws in its earlier loss to Georgia Tech.
Pryor is Georgetown’s best shooter. He’s made almost as many 3s as the rest of the team combined while shooting a blistering 52.5 percent from beyond the arc.
The one thing Syracuse can’t afford to do is give a scholarship to a player who is not good enough to play at SU because the coaches whiffed on their top choice.
