The key toward keeping the Hawks in the game in the early going, Keating finished with 18 points in a respectable showing despite the uneven score. Despite a thin frame, he stood out with his toughness and skill as a finisher inside, both as an opportunistic slasher with sneaky burst and as an active, intelligent cutter. He was consistently in the right place at the right time to come up with easy buckets in the flow. Keating showed flashes of standstill perimeter shooting as well, though it doesn’t look to quite be his comfort zone. He’ll need time to add some strength to his frame but could eventually be a nice complementary piece at the small-college level.
