EARNING HIS STRIPES

+53

Through five games, sophomore Dajuan Graf has the best plus/minus ratio on the FGCU roster, and he has it by a wide margin. One of the most improved players from last year to this season, Graf has a +/- of +53 which is +18 better than anyone else on the Eagles’ roster. After posting a +/- of -11 at Furman, the worst on the FGCU roster, the guard has responded over the past two games as he’s led the team at +23 versus Eckerd and +30 against Ave Maria.
