Every time I see the other team . . .

make a three it's over Svi's hand!

His defense has improved, but he is not good at closing out or switching on outside shooters.

Very late in the game Self gave him an earful about his perimeter defense or lack thereof.

I'm really impressed with his improvement this year. I didn't expect it to be honest, but he's worked hard and it's paying off.

I do think he plays a lot shorter than his 6-8. Always a little hunched over, and no jump shooter should get an easy shot off over him, but they do.

From Tom Keegan:
" Kansas State’s 6-foot-10 forward Dean Wade aggressively hunted shots when Svi was on him and finished the night with 20 points on 8-of-12 shooting from the field and 3-of-3 from beyond the arc. He looked so confident, except when Jackson switched onto him. He looked to dish when that happened."
