Carter Whitt's stats in ACC games: 10 minutes per game 1 ppg 1.1 apg 1.2 rpg 14% from 3; 31% from 2; 50% from the line. His TO rate is 37.7.
Alondes turns it over a lot and his TO rate is 23.6 in ACC games. So, Whitt is far more TO prone than Alondes (think about that) per minutes played, but Whitt can't score, doesn't have close to the same assist rate and Whitt has problems defending ACC level guards. Whitt's "O"rating in ACC games is 63.5; everyone else in the WF regular rotation has "O" ratings of 100 or better in conference games. Hildreth has an "O" rating in 80.4, but he has far fewer minutes in conference games than Whitt (Cam has played 4 or less minutes in more than half of WF's conference games). Whitt's O rating is the worst among all ACC players that have played 10 minutes or more per game in ACC play.
At this point, Whitt is what he is for this season. He may develop into a better player next year, but there can be no reasonable expectation that Carter will be anything other than a negative in WF's remaining games. Realize that it would be tough, and almost unfair to thrust McCray into key games this late in the season, given his lack of experience competitive games, but it's really hard to imagine McCray hurting WF as much as Whitt has. It's no longer about making a positive contribution from the spot that Whitt occupies; it's about minimizing the damage caused. Realize that its harsh, and Whitt is a young player who may still become a solid contributor, but at some point, to maximize the chances to win this year, would think the staff has to be looking at other options, whether its McCray or Miles Lester (being serious).
