re: Jimmy Whitt is such a leader

Since the 1992-93 season, only nine different guards have averaged more than 15 points per game without hitting a 3-pointer. Whitt is one of those players, according to HogStats.com, and he is the only player since 1993 to accomplish the feat in a power conference. This season, Whitt is averaging 15.3 points per contest thanks to the help of his deadly mid-range shot on 53.0 percent shooting. He is 0 of 1 from 3-point range through 19 games.
