Ennis- Looks as advertised. Just smooth, in control and a true general. Liked what I saw.
Gbinije - His ball handling and playing the point still looks to be a work in progress but its definitely serviceable. Good form on his jumper and a guy who can contribute. Solid on defense as well. He was shaky a couple times but I still like him. Good player who will be important. Hit a couple 3's during the game.
Cooney - Kid looks like a different player. He is confident, stroking it consistently and was flat out on fire tonight. Made a couple nice passes and hit a couple 2's as well. Seems ready to continue to be extremely disruptive on D. Hustles his ass off. I feel better about the 2 spot
Buss - Jacked a few too many 3's but hit one or two. Like cooney he is disruptive on D and hustles all over the place. He looked more under control since Canada.
BJ- Settled down after being a little nervy early. Showed that sweet stroke and looked good. He definitely has the stroke and a good understanding of where to be on offense. Just a young frosh who shows his youth which is normal
CJ - Wow- looks like ACC preseason POY. Showed confidence using the dribble and his shot looks great. Looked like a dominant player who is hard to stop. My favorite play was a drive from the top of the key with a little up and under scoop shot. How can you not love a kid who has improved every single year on the hill. He looked like a lottery pick out there.
Grant- shot was off including an airball. He didn't get a lot of chances in this one. There is no question what he brings so not worried.
Roberson - Tyler looked good even though most of his buckets were in transition. Showed that drive to go get the rebound. He also played like a guy who was behind a little bit for not being with them in Canada. You can see the potential though.
Keita- hit some nice foul line jumpers.. same ole consistent Baye. Love this kid and we will need him.
Rak/DC2 - combining them as not a lot of touches for the bigs. Hard to guage as this was all about the wings/guards/
CO - impressive physical specimen. Showed how raw he is. Reminds me of Dieng. Saw some little things like effort going for boards/blocks I liked. Certainly potential there.
We have a lot of options... just solid all around. Biggest concerns if any would be Gbinije and production from the bigs ( if needed).
