I said as much during the season that he probably didn't get enough PT to prove himself, but then again why waste the effort on a somewhat known commodity. That's a big gamble to take on someone you hope returns to their former self.

Some Info on KDA: - 21/3/3 vs Ohio State earlier in the season. Just 1 turnover. - 27 points and 5 rebounds vs Cleveland State - Averaged 26 in two games vs Wright State - 28 points, 6 assists vs Robert Morris Voted Third Team All-Horizon 18.5 points per game 119.2 Offensive Rating - would've been 3rd on OU last season (Jack and Simmons were both 120) 120.2 Defensive Rating - would've been #1 on OU last season (Jack was a distant 2nd) 39% from 3 - Would've been #1 on OU Has a 30 pts / 5 rbs / 5.5 ast / 2 stls split per 100 poss. High School: First-team All-Ohio... ranked among the leading scorers in the state at 27.9 points per game his senior year... leading scorer and Team MVP in the North-South All-Star Game. (Roster included Dailyn Swainn - averaged 17 at Texas last season) Really excited to have him (back) in Athens County. All his numbers place him at what would've been at the top of our roster last season among nearly every single category. Really impressive stuff if he can continue that here. Got a good one to hopefully replace Jack.

Really impressive stuff if he can continue that here. Got a good one to hopefully replace Jack. An important note on this, defensive rating is the inverse of offensive rating. A 120 offensive rating is very good, but a 120 defensive rating is not good. Offensive rating breaks down things on a per 100 possession basis. So a 120 offensive rating means that the team scores 120 points per 100 possessions with that player on the floor. A 120 defensive rating means that a team gives up 120 points per 100 possessions with that player on the floor. A net rating is then offensive rating + defensive rating and is a very loose measure of overall impact. So a 125 Orating and a 120 Drating = a 5 net rating. This is in no way to say Kyler is a bad defender, just to explain that Drating does not mean higher = better. The defensive rating HEAVILY reflects the style of play at IUIndy, where they played very uptempo, fast basketball, that naturally gives up a lot of points per possession with the goal of just outscoring the other team. He won't be an elite defender, but he'll be solid. Overall a VERY good get who actually ranks as a better get than Simmons was last year according to EvanMiya.

Yea, there's definitely a team component that can impact a player's individual Drating. Breath had a 96 Drating in his final season at UNCG. Which is outstanding. His Drating with us was 112.
