Why has Kadin Shedrick been struggling?
Virginia Cavaliers center Kadin Shedrick was a regular starter for much of last year and the first several games of this season. Then, in December, UVA went on a stretch in which they struggled offensively. Even still, very few of us traced it directly to Shedrick. However, Tony Bennett made a drastic switch in his rotations and implemented “small ball,” spreading the court with five shooters.
All of a sudden, Shedrick was not only demoted from a starting role but playing single digit minutes per night. The result of this decision has obviously been positive, with the Cavaliers currently holding a seven game winning streak and shooting the lights out.
