I think we need shooters.

Agbaji will test the waters (as he should), if he gets at least an early 2nd round evaluation, then he's gone. I also think he might be cool with going overseas.

I'd take Devin Askew if push-came-to-shove.

Dang, Stanley Umude can really score. He’d start for us next year.

He dropped 28 on us a couple of years ago. 14, 20+ point games this season...

Harris, CB, Ochai, Wilson, Mac
Yesufu, Bryce, Clemence, Adams, Cam Martin?

That's a really good 10-man roster. Self won't play all 10. He'll settle on 8. But that's outstanding depth.

"We need some DOGS, we don't need any kitty cats!"

There was a great coach's rant about that like 10 years ago.

But it's more true than ever for this team. I think CB is the person who can do it the best, but he's way too passive. But when he's on, and he's cocky, there's probably not anyone better on this roster.

"...there's probably not anyone better on this roster."

I cannot agree with that at all Newton.
I think there are three players better.

Yeah, these commitments are nice but I don't see where any of the returning rotation players' roles are shrinking, and we all kind of thought that was a huge issue with this last year's roster construction.

Need improvement across the board and big jumps from particularly guys like Wilson and Thompson.

When CB is on his game, talking shit, confident in his shot? I don't think there is.

I want it to be Ochai but I think it will be Wilson.

Nah. Ceiling too limited.

Having an offensive threat initiating offense should really help both Och and Braun. Braun can't be Batman, but Chris O'Donnell's Robin won't cut it.

Just because someone talks shit does not make them better.
Braun had a great game in November.
His 2021 was not that outstanding.

Wilson?

He’s not a freak athlete, but he’s skilled.

Best rebounder on the team, and how often can a 6’8” handle the fast break and slash to the rim?

I think his finishing and jumper will improve. That’ll make for a really good college small ball 4.

Right now, Jalen is a good 6th man. I see a path where he becomes a good 4, but consistency is obviously an issue, and we have to protect him by not having him mix it up at the 5.

He won't play the 5 role again. Adams or Martin will take that spot.

CB goes on too many stretches where he's running low on confidence and I feel like the passive part of his game might just be who he is in general.

If there is a real DUDE on the roster next year it might be someone we didn't expect it from...but I don't it's CB as much, as appreciate him.

Martin makes me think we can afford to RS Adams.
