18 points, 4.5 assists, 5 rebounds a game as a sophomore in D2. Shot 43% from 3, which wasn't an anomaly as he shot 40% as a freshman. Would be our 3rd point guard if X and Dalton stay. 4th if you include the preferred walk-on that redshirted. However, X and Dalton are gone after next year. He is small, but his stats jump off the page.https://twitter.com/sheed_bello21/status/1638184770646704128?s=46&t=7s0hTttieSER8wqRSA0LoA
D2 player from Parkside
He was Player-of-the-Year in his conference after being Freshman-of-the-Year last year. Was also named D2 First Team All-Midwest. Led DePaul Prep to Regional Championship. If we're going to sign a D2 player, it might as well be the best D2 guard in the Midwest. 😉
They played Bradley on 11/7 and he scored 7 points on 3-9 shooting in 31 minutes

In GENERAL I'd lean towards a D1 xfer vs a D2, but this kid had 74 steals in 30 games... that's insane. By comparison, our best defender (Jones) had 54 steals in 33 games. 18ppg vs D2 competition may be misleading, but at the same time I'm really impressed that he doubled his scoring average from his freshmen year. He also shot 43% from 3. I guess what I'm saying is, we could do a LOT worse than this young man.
He also had 3 assists and a steal. You can't base a player on the 1st pre-season game. This kid obviously has skills that would probably translate to D1 as he is quick, can shoot lights out, super athletic (he is 6' tall and had 15 blocks) and plays good defense. He was NABC 2nd team All American and an honor student in high school. We need athletic scorers that can shoot and play defense. Sounds like that is his exact skill set. I would gladly take him and at least one long athletic wing depending upon who we lose.They played Bradley on 11/7 and he scored 7 points on 3-9 shooting in 31 minutes

If you watched us play Bradley this year then he should fit right in
I was going to say MD scored 5 points on 1-5 shooting with a better surrounding cast against Bradley...one game doesn't mean much. Not saying he's going to be a world beater either, but hard to judge off one bad game.
Bello Freshman year highlights. Obviously, he was even better last year, but I couldn't find video.

Was just a joke lol I have no problem with the young man coming here. I think he'd be a solid addition and could take some of Newton's minutes

- Yeah I got that. I think my comment was more in reference to SalukiWorld’s stat.
Kid looks really quick in transition after a steal, can get space on his shots, and seems to have some bounce. Honestly, has of lot of similarities to Lance. Looks like he could be a really good fit for us if Lance moves on (which I think he will). Will need to polish up several things because he’s pretty small but has a lot of attributes that I think would fill some holes in our current roster. I would be happy to have him.
He reminds me a little of Kevin Dillard.

Rasheed calls Raheem “his twin.” They could be a package deal?
Spike’s head might explode if they get a package of a D2 and a D3 player
