George Mason forward and DMV native Woody Newton

Bleav in DMV Hoops

George Mason forward Woody Newton is averaging 7 points, 3.6 rebounds, .8 steals, and .8 blocks for the 8-2 Patriots. He's also shooting and insane 63.6% from three right now, which leads the country. Newton impacts the game on-court with his floor-spacing, defense, and versatility but he also makes a positive impact with his attitude and joy for the game as well. He's a fun player to watch in large part because you can tell he's having fun out there. We talk about why he transferred to George Mason, his relationship with head coach Tony Skinn, the vibes with the whole team, and growing more comfortable as the season continues. He also shares some things people might not know about him including his favorite TV show, why people should check out George Mason games, where he sees himself in five years, who was his toughest matchup in the DMV (hint: it's an eventual NCAA National Player of the Year), and why the DMV is the best basketball area in the country.
