How Keith Stone Can Improve On Hot Shooting Season

Keith Stone was one of the Gators who took the biggest leaps in his game last year as the 6’8” forward went from a redshirt-freshman averaging 3.6 points per game playing 12.1 minutes to being a key starter and a player relied upon to play both frontcourt positions as a redshirt-sophomore. Starting in 26 of 34 games for the Gators Stone established himself as someone with a deadly stroke when left open and the defensive versatility to guard whomever the team needed him to shut down, wherever he was needed on the floor. His ability to rise up and block shots also showed a level of athleticism he wasn’t always known to have and that athleticism mixed with an elaborate skill set has his name on NBA draft radars.
