I do feel like
Right?
I do feel like Nap is the answer on the roster down the road, but outside of that I am hoping that Money Williams is that Libby Stump type of impact player down the road.

Again it isn't as if they aren't getting quality shots late, they just aren't going in. Moody had one or two, Bannan a couple, meanwhile NC gets a couple low percentage outcome shots to go and suddenly it is a 1 possession game for the last three minutes.
What it comes down to in part, we just don't have a player that can get every shot he wants when he wants it. Moody is a great off ball player, when we run him through screens, he is about as close to a sure thing as we have. In that last 4 minutes we had Martin, Whitney and Nap/Oke/Vasquez on the floor and it appeared despite have space to shoot they just didn't want to shoot it. Nap passed up a couple late (which is expected), but no one else seemed to want to shoot the ball unless it was a 1 second left on the shot clock heave.
There was a ton of movement to get players clear but last night it was the Bannan/Moody show late. Both were assertive, but it didn't take a genius to figure out where the shot was going to come from. Without Thomas on the floor, just makes for slim pickings after those two that feels confident enough to release the basketball.
Maybe the Griz should recruit GrizWBB frosh Libby Stump (19 pts last night at 53% from the field).
