Seagears, a 6-foot-1 guard from Silver Spring, Md., along with fellow freshmen Myles Mack and Eli Carter, bear the weight of the Rutgers backcourt after both its starters graduated.
Seagears showed glimpses of his big-play ability in the finals, converting on all three of his dunks and backing up Rice’s prediction in the process.
“It felt great when you really live up to what your coach thinks,”Seagears said. “And I’m the shortest one in the dunk contest. Did you think about that? Height doesn’t mean anything.”
Carter joined Seagears in the contest, capturing everyone in the audience’s
attention, including Kyrie Irving, the No.1 overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft and Carter’s close friend.
