... and all of that achieved while playing out of position.
Out of necessity.
Even if Donnie 'only' gets the token start each game, he's gonna start.
I'm pretty sure he'll do a lot more than just get token starts tho - kid is a talent.
Bell and Taylor are both guys who should come off the bench.
Now, we may need for Bell to start next year, IF we still are stuck w having Maliq in the middle.
Assuming we had a competent 5, then you could have Maliq at the 4, and Freeman at the 3.
(not that these differentiate anything - they're both Forwards)
Freeman is skilled enough to play a SF type role for us.
If/when Maliq is at the 5, then Donnie's your 4, and maybe Bell or Taylor (if he's still here) are at the 3.
OR perhaps Q plays there? I like that idea too.
We don't have room for Taylor next year. He's at best our 6th option at forward, behind Freeman, Bell, Benny, Maliq Brown and Copeland, when we run our "3 guard" set.
We should get a real center, hope MacLeod gets healthy, and ease Hima out.
