I agree completely on your point about Fennell. He seems kind of behind after coming to Syracuse late after playing for the Aussie national team. The offense just felt shaky with the ball in his hands. He was credited with two assists and a turnover, I would have guessed those numbers should be reversed. He missed every shot he took and only got 12 minutes.

With the offensive limitations of Kyle, Souare and White, we might find that Red tries to keep the time with two of them very limited. White and Souare might be in a battle for minutes, with instant offense Betsey having already leapfrogged them in the rotation.

Betsey actually took minutes last night from Kingz and Starling, it seemed. I'm very curious to see how this shakes out when White is back and the minutes for the deep bench get pared down. Guys unlikely to play much (Zephir, Womack and Fennell) got 25 minutes last night that will be split among other players.

I feel it could be Kyle, Freeman, Betsey as the big men, with Kingz, Starling, and Anthony the SF/3G rotation, with George getting infrequent rest.

Maybe White/Souare/Fennell are each a .5 in the rotation?

Who backs up George when he had to be out? I hadn't even hypothesized the answer might be Anthony... But Red seemed to give him an extended tryout at running the offense last night. In the moment, I took that as a reaction to Fennell's shakiness. Maybe Red is leaning that way.
