RH: From Percy Bates To The Present, A 30-Spot Is Worth Another Look

By Paul Suellentrop

The allure of Kenyon Giles scoring 33 points on 17 shots is that he is one of the unlikeliest of the 49 members of Wichita State's 30-point club.

Giles is a 5-foot-10 guard who thrives on long three-pointers and step-back jumpers over taller defenders. Many of his shots fit into the "No, no, no – Yes!" category of shot selection, until he makes them with such frequency the doubts fade. For the season, he averages 18.6 points and is shooting 42.6 percent from three-point range and 47.2 percent on two-point shots.
