"When you can shoot, people find a spot for you to play and Vitaliy gives us that option. As a left-hander, his game can be tough to defend, and he makes good decisions and is a real good student of the game. Like many freshman, he will need time to develop physically, but his ability to make shots is what will earn him playing time. He is confident in his shooting, and that is a great thing to have from a 6-8 player." -- Bobby Hurley
