SCOUTS LOVE: Shooting range and speed in transition are Newman’s best traits. A five-star recruit generally regarded as a top-10 player in his class, Newman stayed home in 2015 to attend Mississippi State. While he enjoyed relative success for a freshman – Newman averaged 11.3 points in 28 minutes a game and shot 38 percent from the 3-point arc – it wasn’t quite the one-and-done season expected of him. Newman transferred to Kansas, sat out 2017-18 and emerged as an NBA prospect as the 2018-19 season progressed in a perimeter-oriented offense.
