His name is Myles Rice and how he made it out of Columbia SC is a mystery. This kid is 6'3" / 180 lbs and his stats this year through 27 games is impressive. He averages 32.5 min a game and starts
for the PAC 12 leader - Washington State. 21 games he has scored in double figures, and only 6 games has he gone for single digits. He leads the team in assists at 3.7 a game, and his assist to turnover
ratio is 1.5 / 1.0 which for a freshman going up against upperclassmen who could be 4-5 years older speaks volumes to his court demeanor.

Myles is 2nd on the team in points per game - 15.5, and corrals 3.0 rebounds as well. He has started every game and his offensive stats include 44.6% overall FG, with a decent 31.8% 3-Pt 34/107 attempts. His FT percentage is 80.4%, 2nd best on the team. And he has 44 steals.

Yes, it is difficult for freshman PG's to consistently do well throughout their first college basketball season, but Myles seems to have broken the code. Try and catch a game of his when March Madness starts. It would be worthwhile for AU MBB to reach out to him for a potential transfer as the PAC 12 is no more.
