Nebraska wins, Samari is ranked about 50 spots higher on 247's composite and 100 higher by 247. But that doesn't mean Adams-Woods is a bad player. Also even though MAW is listed as a PG, he is not a true pass first type PG and didn't always handle PG duties for his team. He may end up as a SG.

He reminds me of Kevin Johnson. Both good, but not elite athletes. Both good shooters. MAW hopefully a better decision maker and ball handler early on in his career. A solid 4 year guy who isn't likely to be the main go to guy.

Samari has the potential to be the star, go to guy that can carry a team later in his career. I don't see that as much in MAW, but we need good role players and shooters and MAW checks both those boxes.

Once you get that far down, there isn’t much difference.

Both good shooters? Yikes, I'd hate to see what you consider a bad shooter. I hope MAW is a better shooter than KJ, who was a career 32% shooter from beyond the arc.

Wow, I really thought Johnson was in the mid to high 30's. Okay, hopefully MAW is a better version of Johnson. But they seem to have a similar body type and similar play style. Hopefully MAW can shoot at a higher percentage and make fewer offensive mistakes.

KJ was known for making his first 3, then thinking he was enfuego would go on to miss his next five. Not a good outside shooter.
