Isaac Humphries

Grade: D

The Australian big man is finishing up his sophomore season in 2017. Isaac Humphries is on the floor quite a bit in relief of Bam Adebayo. Unfortunately, Humphries hasn’t got the pure athleticism to keep up with the pace of play.

Kentucky’s seven footer has not scored double digit points all season. With that said, Humphries hasn’t recorded a game with more than 10 rebounds and only four games with seven or more boards. Humphries is mainly a fill-in for Bam when he is needing a breather. At 8.6 minutes per game, that is just not enough to make a difference for a team.

Cats fans can see the big man improve over time. This season, as it is so, Isaac Humphries is not a part of the big picture.
