My analysis of what I see so far, from scrimmage and Greece and what I’ve read
Starting five, guys I’d prefer to see start
Graham Ike- pretty solid starter lol. Has expanded his game outside, not only has an awesome back to basket moves, he can take you out 18 feet plus
Hunter M- All around player that’s proven, won’t need to be as crucial to our offense this year, but can take over a game if needed
Max- he oozes with athleticism and has a little more refined game than Oden, with better handles
Noah- if one guy has made huge improvements from what I can see, it’s him, he plays with a strong motor and can hit the three
Wenzel- He’s gotten a ton better as well, good shooter, defender and all around basketball player. Just makes plays
This starting five has a couple guys who can shoot the three well, good rebounders, defenders and a really awesome post presence
The next 5
Oden- great rebounder, athletic and long and has a good midrange game and can hit the 3
Anderson- a true point guard, who in scrimmage was good at keeping his guy in front of him, will be good for opposing Backcourts like New Mexico that are quick
Kyman- was super impressed with him in scrimmage, great shooter, good court awareness
Thompson- Will be good to see Hunter playing more 4. He can certainly drain top of the key 3’s and last year at end, was very solid
Dusell- when Dusell is in your second 5, you know your team is stacked. Guy can shoot lights out and is arguably best defender on team. He could very well start
Last spot could go to Foster, Barnhart or Powell
Foster, if he can stay healthy has all the tools, good shooter, athletic and good all around game. Powell looks good, developing offensive game, learning every day how to better defend post. The ultimate X factor could be Barnhart. He’s athletic, Chet Holmgren lite. If he develops, watch out MWC!
I think we can beat almost any team on any night with any 8 guys in a rotation. It’s pretty awesome when we are 11 deep!
