Ricky Lindo Jr
Ran into Ricky on campus tonight, while walking my dog, said a quick hello, good to see him and glad he's still around! he was heading into the District House. I'm thinking a lot of the athlete live there now? If memory serves they used to live somewhere on F St.
I think he's going to have a huge year, what do you see as the ceiling for Lindo??

Dude-Like you I see a huge year for the dog-I have no idea about Ricky's ceiling.

Re: Ricky Lindo Jr
Without predicting a big year for Ricky, depending on his health status and barring our receiving any impact transfers (which I really hope isn't the case), then I see Ricky as our #2 scorer next to Bishop, as we lost 2 of our 3 leading scorers and nobody on the roster jumps out at me as being able to make some of that up. With some tweaking of his game by Caputo, maybe 13-15 ppg? Personally very happy he is returning.

13 and 10 were the 2 year career averages of Yinka Dare at GW, 13.8 and 10.3 to be precise.

Re: Ricky Lindo Jr
Yinka was a raw talent with an undeveloped offensive game in his 2 years at GW, however he was a defensive mastermind. To compare Lindo with Yinka is absurd.

Re: Ricky Lindo Jr
My reasoning for 13 and 10 are (a) someone has to score points aside from Bishop and for me Lindo should get plenty of those chances, barring a major transfer coming in, and (b) he can rebound as well as anyone / better than anyone currently on the roster. The 10 rebounds per game is probably wishful thinking, so maybe 12 & 8 is more realistic, but I can absolutely see him going 13 & 10 consistently.

Re: Ricky Lindo Jr
13 points and 10 boards is pretty rare air, how many D1 players, last year, averaged 13 points and 10 boards?? Would be quite a feat next season.
Lindo did average 11.7 and 10.4 boards for GW in 2020-21, does appear to have the type of game to pull it off!
