2017-2018 review:

Jordan Ash saw the biggest increase in minutes of any returning player from 2016-2017 to 2017-2018. During his sophomore season, Ash barely saw the court, charting only 3.8 minutes per game, but by the heart of his junior season, he found himself becoming a regular contributor, making four starts and averaging 12.7 minutes.

His offensive production was not ultimately what earned him minutes, but instead, his defensive aptitude allowed him to pass Isiah Brown and become Bryant McIntosh’s backup.
