I am pretty surprised to see so many penciling Chukwu in as a starter. He was behind a hobbled Coleman last year and even before the injury struggled to play up to speed and grasp the situation. I'm not saying he won't be much improved but I don't think we can count on it. Personally I have Thompson and Sidibe ahead of him on the depth chart until I see him in action.

Trying to pick our front court starters is pretty much a head scratcher though. We have a very promising looking group with zero game experience at the forward spots. Thompson has experience at center and will score it but played very poorly on the defensive end. Chukwu got hurt early last year but didn't show much of anything. Sidibe is a freshman big that has talent but they can take time to develop. You would think Moyer with a year in the program would have the advantage to snag one of those starting forward spots. Dolezaj looks like the only natural 3 to me. Brissett was the best player in Canada and has been developing quickly.

If I had to guess I'd say:
Dolezaj SF
Moyer PF
Thompson C
That said I think Brissett plays as many minutes as Moyer and Dolezaj and could wind up starting at either forward spot.
