I felt for him as his friend/teammate Q lost it and he had to take on too big a ball handling role leading to Najiball. If he could have played a pure 3 like (for ex )Diallo I think we would have a much better memory. He defended, rebounded like a 4 and was not afraid to take the big shot. He won the game at MSG (Gillespie flop with too late positioning) in 2019 that would have given us the NCAA, and won the Butler game last year before Baldwin shot (no tournament and the worst illegal screen by Nze I have ever seen in wide open court). With him and Sumner in league X is well represented.

Naji hit a ton of big shots that year, the UCONN thanksgiving tournament game, etc. etc. He was really clutch with that "Kris Jenkins Villanova" winner.

Congrats to Naji. You deserve it with all the hard work you put in.
