per Heather Rule:

Mason is there to keep his teammates humble. He also knows his role on the court when it comes to reading his teammates. During a game, he knows when Amir Coffey needs to get going, so he’ll call a play for him, Mason said. Same thing with Murphy; Mason knows where he likes the basketball.

“As a point guard, I think your job is to know the strengths of your teammates,” Mason said. “And just try to cover up their weaknesses as much as possible.”

He helps his teammates in their mental approach to games, knows them well and is one of the best point guards in the Big Ten. In other wors, he’s exactly the kind of player the Gophers should want as their captain for the 2017-18 campaign.
