Wow, he looks like he's improving. Just sad that it appears that Calhoun does not push these guys to work on developing these skills during the off season. If Thabeet had anything close to those mini hooks/jumpers we'd have won it.
Okafor is the last guy that just pushed himself to develop and get better. Don't really see that from recent Uconn guys. saw it with prior teams but think we got spoiled with massive talent from the 2003-2006 teams.
Thabeet is still developing. He has improved in each and every season. By the time he left here, he had an elbow jumper and some post moves.
We have been spoiled with some great talent but don't forget that Thabeet and Okafor weren't highly toted players coming in and when they left, they were elite.
