Stats in SEC play:

Wilbekin: 10.7 ppg, 5.7 apg, 2.2 tpg
Hickey: 13.8 ppg, 2.8 apg, 1.3 tpg


Any reason you left out steals. You can't just ignore that Hickey is leading the NCAA in steals.

LSU fans overrate Hickey as a defender like they overrated Chris Paul as a defender.

I didn't include "steals" as they're not necessarily a primary stat when judging point guards.

Hickey is great at getting his hand into passing lanes and pushing tempo, but he's mediocre in halfcourt sets. Wilbekin is the best defender on the best defensive team in the country (KenPom).

Hickey is averaging about 4.2 spg in SEC play, though.

I also could have easily posted shooting percentages in SEC play as well, though. Hickey is 38.6% from the field (34.8% from 3), while Wilbekin is 51.0% from the field (47.4% from 3).
