Agree. He also needs to improve his footwork, agility, jump timing and hit the weight room as well. He is just plain RAW.
He is a FREAKING freshman, straight out of high school where he set records for shot blocking. Of course, those blocks were solely dependent on his 6'10" length and NOT to any learned techniques. The best thing I see from Mo besides his height is that he actually shoots the ball with proper trajectory and reverse rotation yet does not launch three balls.
Early in the season, I thought he and Luka were "bust" recruits. Neither seemed capable of playing D-1 basketball. Yet today, I must admit both have improved considerably from the season inception.

Miggy, if this was a Tweet I'd give it a like and re-Tweet.
RAW was what I remember from his earlier games.

Mo is still raw especially on defense. Both Mo and Luka have one or two games that stand out. The rest not so much. But they are both true frosh and hopefully should improve next season.

Noah is a future star.

Only as a shooting guard. More like a Derrick dials.

Noah can be taught to be a good assist, low-turnover player, who continues to shoot well.
In order to garner more assists he needs to see the court better, and play with players who can both shoot well and finish at the rim.
Sure he’ll work on both this summer.
