"Heslip served as a weapon of mass destruction down at Cincinnati, dropping 37 points during one pivotal matchup. Opponents tried executing a serious clamp down operation on Heslip, to no avail. They threw double and triple-teams at him. Heslip fended defenders off, reeling off a personal 17-0 spurt in one game."

“He was still on fire no matter what they threw at him,” Russell recalls. “He’s really starting to blow up. He’s like a Mark Price, Scott Skiles type player. He’s the last one to leave the gym, always. He’ll shoot all day. The kid absolutely loves the game.”

"Heslip averaged a thread over five three-pointers a game during the First Eight and National Invitational Tournaments, which were run by basketball. Top-tier coaches such as Rick Pitino and John Thompson III took in their games.

Heslip hit is high water mark in Springfield when he went off for eight treys in a game."

If he's another shooter like TP he'd be a huge weapon on offense. He's 6'2 so he's gonna have a much easier time getting his shot off & Altman's teams shoot a ton of three's. His offense gets you a lot of open looks from deep, if we have a guy like heslip our offense would be a lot more effective.

It does sound like he is more than a 3-point shooter though. His highlights show him taking people to the rim, but I'm not sure of the talent level so it's hard to judge if it's really all that impressive. He does have good bloodlines as his uncle is the coach of the Toronto Raptors, Jay Triano.
