As one of Michigan State’s leading scorers and a team leader, Coen Carr is expected to bring his A-game every time out. Unfortunately, that pressure can get to student-athletes, and it’s led to him pressing a bit in recent weeks and he’s taken himself out of games.
Carr has been solid all year, averaging 11.6 points and 4.9 rebounds, but a lot of people expected more from the junior forward from Georgia.
Although he has taken an obvious step on the offensive side of the ball, he has a tendency to disappear during games. Sometimes it feels like he’s only making an impact if he’s throwing down a monstrous dunk to get the crowd going after a lull or making a big block on a breakaway.
