14 dudes, of which I know of 3 or 4. Quite the group of newbies. I will be buying / seeking out a game guide for weeks. And I hope our poop guy works out, because we are going to catch some poop over that one. Pun completely intended.

Our best 2, sure hope Jordan Naughton gets more PT this year, really like his size and effort down low earlier in his career!!

Naughton and Thompson will make up the identity of the squad. We know James and Maldonado are solid but if the big guys are soft again we will get pushed around every game.

Either Dung is standing on his textbooks or he's grown 3 inches since they measured him last. Him and JJ being listed the same height while standing next to each other there is kinda funny

No kidding. Dung is much closer to Thompson than JJ in size. Probably should be listed at 6’8” 215 or so. JJ isn’t 6’7” either of course. Both JJ and Maldonado are listed well above their actual height.
