In a season that is OVER, I find it odd that Pitino isn't giving IW more run, regardless of how bad IW has been. He's the only PG on the roster for 2019, end of story.
All I can say about IW is this... good luck finding a PG with better handles, and who is quicker. You can't teach those skills. College players typically become better shooters (scorers) as their careers go on. Undoubtedly, he will be a better facilitator when there are better players around him.
I'll never pretend to know what is going on in the locker room, in practice, and everything else within the program, but I hope there are a lot of good reasons for his lack of playing time in the past few games. To everyone who continues to write, "he's gotta earn it", what are your plans at PG for 2018-19? In some instances, you've gotta give a player playing time whether you like it or not.
Regardless, I hope Pitino has a backup plan in place for next season.
