Mballa would be a game changer imo.  But if there is any truth to the "promise of PT" to the freshman it would take a concerted effort by the coaches to make it happen.  But they could do it if they wanted.

C - Jesse -30, JBA - 5, Maliq - 5
PF - Mballa - 28, Benny - 7, Maliq - 5
SF - Benny - 20, Taylor - 8, Bunch - 12
2G - JG3 - 28, Mintz - 5, Taylor - 7
PG - Mintz - 20, Symir - 15, Q - 5

Lots of problems with this I know:
[LIST=1]
[*]That's 9 players getting at least 10 min per game.  It may be required even without Mballa with a team this young and inexperienced.   Coach would need to change his philosophy...a lot.
[*]Leaves Carey out completely and only 5 minutes each for Quadir and JBA. 
[*]Doesn't solve at all the backup C issue.  But gives us 3 very athletic forwards that could support the lack of a C with 3 Guard lineups or even 3 Forward lineups.  Mballa, Benny and Maliq could probably hold their own against all but the tallest and best C.
[*]Does 10, 12 and 15 keep Brown, Bunch and Taylor happy and here?
[*]Token minutes for Q.  My personal opinion is he pushes for PT that Taylor, Bunch and Symir want.
