B.J. Mack is a huge part of the Gamecocks success this season. As a 6-foot-8, 270-pound forward, Mack is a beast in the paint and a problem for the opponents he faces.
His stamina isn’t the best in the country and he only plays about 23.5 minutes per game but those minutes are highly productive. One area that Mack could improve on is his shooting percentage, averaging 41.6 percent throughout this season.
Mack’s size alone makes him a physically difficult player to go up against but his growth throughout his college career makes him an even bigger threat as South Carolina progresses.
