Bryan Hodgson<\/a>. The Bulls have an 11-7 record, lead the American Athletic Conference in points per game and rank second in the conference in three-point field goals made.<\/p>\nJunior guard Wes Enis has played a big role in that offensive success. In his first season at USF, he is the second-leading scorer on the team, averaging 14.7 points per game and has already etched his name into the program\u2019s record book. On January 4, Enis made 10 three-pointers in the Bulls\u2019 game against UAB to set the record for most three-pointers in a game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One week later, he made 10 threes against Tulsa, joining Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and James Harden as the only players in the NCAA or NBA to make 10 threes in two games in a single month since 2010.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you ask me, I think I\u2019m the best shooter in the world,\u201d Enis said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Enis has been playing basketball since kindergarten, but his confidence as a shooter did not grow until he made a major change to his game in middle school.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI shot right-handed all the way up until seventh grade. Going into eighth grade, I switched hands. It wasn\u2019t fun doing that because it was super uncomfortable,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Throughout the summer before entering eighth grade, Enis stood under a basketball hoop every day, making 1,500 shots with his left hand to improve his form. Once he felt more comfortable, he started shooting further away from the hoop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Conover, Ohio native has become proudly ambidextrous. When playing recreational baseball, he bats right-handed but throws with his left. He writes left-handed but could sign his name with his right hand if needed. However, he will exclusively shoot with his left hand for USF as the season continues.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a program that\u2019s going to make some noise,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s no [professional] basketball around here, so might as well come out and watch the Bulls.\u201d<\/p>\n
USF is back in action on Thursday night against UAB.
