I think first, your number one weakness is the Euro who shoots 49% from 3pt range is on the bench.

A lineup with Dual, Tobiason, MMM, White and Wilson is a very good defensive one, with at least three plus defensive starters, and possibly two elite ones. You have a whole lineup of players that can get you a steal, including Dual who is elite at forcing turnovers.

On offense, you have a little off everything. You have two very good shooters, one elite. You have four who are at least a threat from 3 pt range, depending on your opinion of White.

You have two players that can get to the basket and finish, one huge post up center and a power forward who can shoot a little and post up a little.

Still, looking at weaknesses, only two guys too be afraid of from range, a nondescript offensive point guard, and two bigs with medium at best offensive games.

The lineup as constructed now is telling far too much on untested players improving dramatically year over year, or performing really well in their first taste of the ACC.

I feel much better watching Wilson play a bit, and at least we have three competitive centers, one of whom is long limbed and bouncy, the other two who have spent many hours in the weight room.

The team right now has far too many questions to be answered... But Wilson transferring injected a while lot more certainty. We aren't going to be pushed around consistently with him out there. I was really worried about another roster with the biggest players listed at 235. We have three guys taker than our tallest rotation player last year, and two heavier than our biggest on the entire roster last season.  That's a very good thing.
