BYU Guard- #2 Jaxson Robinson
BYU has had a solid team this season, competing very well in the Big 12. They have been led by their guards, who have been a key factor this season. This will be the first matchup for these two teams this season. Both are looking to play hard and get this win, as they are both tied in conference play. I chose to highlight Jaxson Robinson in this article because he put on a clinic versus the Kansas Jayhawks.
Robinson stands at 6'7'' and 190 lbs. and is one of the most efficient players on the BYU roster. He has been listed as a potential first-round draft pick this season after having a breakout season. He shoots the ball really well, as he is one of the best three-point shooters in the country. He has impressive form and has the height to rise above defenders. He has been a catalyst for this team all season long. Robinson can shoot and score in multiple ways and has decent vision but is not a primary facilitator.
The only flaw that he has is that he is not a good rebounder, especially for his size. Robinson is also not consistent in his defensive efforts. TCU needs to slow down his offense if they want to be successful in this matchup, as well as take advantage of his lack of ability to defend and get rebounds. If the Horned Frogs can do this, they will be well on their way to a win.
