Season in Review: Paul Scruggs emerged as a true scorer

Xavier basketball was rolling to a nerve-wracking end to the season, then a global pandemic hit the brakes so hard I went right into the windshield. We’ve shaken ourselves off a bit here and will continue, somewhat belatedly, with our breakdown of one of the weirdest Xavier seasons on record.

As the season started I hypothesized that Paul Scruggs would benefit as a scorer from the outside shooting of a resurgent Naji Marshall (28.6%), KyKy Tandy (35.5%), Bryce Moore (28.6%), and Dah Bishop (11.8%). That proved to not be the case at all.
