He used to blow layups or get the ball stripped down low. I don't recall that happening last night. He made a few dunks and hit his layups. That's a good start for him.
You and Teejers are much higher on Kisunas than I am, obviously. Blowing layups and getting the ball stripped (or blocked...a lot) is a function of his limited athleticism and skills. Tarleton State is tiny: tallest kid who played was 6'6" and not bulky either. Kisunas *should* have feasted on that team, and he was...just ok despite the stat line looking decent. Against a better, taller team I'm afraid he's going to be the same kid we've seen. I think he's fine in spot minutes coming off the bench, but imo he's not a starter on a good Pac-12 team and I didn't see anything last night to make me think otherwise. But one game, so let's hope...
