Ebuka Okorie breads his butter as a devastating scorer but his playmaking is underrated.
The numbers don’t paint a complete picture for Okorie as a passer. Ebuka is consistently making high leverage reads to shift the DEF and create shots/advantages. Comfortable making live dribble skips or making improvisational reads off a collapsed defense. Sub-10 tov% while carrying 30+ usage, seeing two to the ball as often as he does, and taking chances as a passer is special stuff.
2025-26 NBA All-Defensive teams:
First team: Victor Wembanyama, Chet Holmgren, Ausar Thompson, Rudy Gobert, Derrick White
Second team: Bam Adebayo, Scottie Barnes, Cason Wallace, Dyson Daniels,

Okorie led the ACC in scoring at 23.2 PTS while shooting 35.4% from three on 5.7 3PA. 👀
Duren has been horrible this series, and Ausar “Can’t shoot the rock” Thompson has done nothing in the offseason to fix his horrendous shooting. Unreal.
Trey McKenney was a McDonald’s All-American and 2x Gatorade POY, could have easily been a Top 20 pick this year. His usage and minutes under Dusty May were far below comparable prospects. The development vs. retention trade-off is hard to ignore.
So folks at @espn are upset ND isn’t playing in a bowl game after weeks of folks politicking against the lack of conference affiliation, using them as a pawn for their CFB playoff selection show, having the ACC network play the UM/ND game on repeat for 48 hours during Conf Champ week BUT now it’s a bad look they don’t want to serve ESPN’s best interest by playing in an exhibition bowl game? Got it.
Kevin Patullo spend 5 years as a "pass game specialist/coordinator" only to draw up nothing but hitches and curls...
... And his offense is among the worst at completing hitches and curls...
Pathetic.
