NCAA Basketball: Top 5 unknown players going into 2019-2020 season
By Josh Stevens
No. 2 Yoeli Childs – BYU
While Childs might be more known about now due to his improperly done draft paperwork and the nine-game suspension tact along with it, his game still remains fairly unknown. Well now that people have his name in mind him averaging almost a double-double for the season might not go unappreciated by the public. The double-double was not just like an 11-10 statline but rather 21-10 last season although he did fall three-tenths of a point off on the rebounding stat from last year grabbing just 9.7 a game.
Childs is a freak and should come off his suspension with a fire lit under him which could elevate his stats even more and he should make a legitimate case for conference player of the year as well. Childs is downright nasty in his play style as well. Shooting over 32% form range at 6’8″ and 70% from the charity stripe.
Childs very quickly could go from relatively unknown to being a household name among the college basketball community as it would not come as a surprise to see him competing at the next level next year as well with his skill set.
