Pickett is not anywhere close to a stat stuffer or a player that just stands out when you watch Mizzou play. However, Pickett has been a consistent figure in the starting lineup dating back to his freshman year. Pickett is an elite level defender and does a solid job of playing his role within the offense. However, Pickett needs to work hard this offseason to improve his jumper and become more of a threat on offense. If Pickett is able to take the next step on the offensive side, then Mizzou will be dancing in March.
