Lots of the guys that we expected to play great played great. And Kiyan is definitely a scorer that will play a lot.
Here’s some random thoughts.
-Fennell has a rocker step that is a travel. I expect him to get called for that a few times this year.
-in the age of NIL, how does a player like Lillley not wind up as some P4 back up making $500,000?
-Zephir plays very hard, makes good decisions, plays defense and rebounds. I think Red might reward him with one or two minutes per game just because.
-weak side help and shot blocking was much better, but interior defense will still be a problem.
-when it comes to defensive rebounding and then his style pushing the ball up court, Freeman reminds me a lot of DC.
-even though he was picked second team ACC, (and I like his game overall, despite his shortcomings), JJ is our most replaceable starter IMO. Kiyan can clearly play the two or Kingz can play the two with Betsey or White at the 3.
