FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas-Little Rock basketball coach Darrell Walker said on Oct. 20 that, in his opinion, Isaiah Joe has a legitimate shot to play in the NBA - if he grows more comfortable with one key thing.
"I told him he had to learn how to pump fake and put that ball on the floor two or three hard dribbles and raise up and shoot it," noted Walker, an All-American guard for the Razorbacks in the 1980s. "Once he does that, he’s going to have a chance. He’s on the NBA’s radar already."
Although it is only one game and a very small sample size, it appears Joe took Walker's advice and ran with it.
