KyKy Tandy - Picks up three steals as starter Tandy (leg) contributed two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 27 minutes during Monday's 96-73 win over Morgan State.
Impact Tandy received clearance from a leg injury this summer and ended up in the starting five for the Musketeers. Part of that was likely due to the fact that Adam Kunkel was limited by a foot injury, he could could certainly resume his starting role in due time. Still, Tandy has been praised for defensive prowess this offseason and showed it here by contributing in categories beyond scoring, which puts him on the fantasy radar in Big East-heavy formats.
