next year's freshmen frontcourt

[gocards827]

I wonder what positions they'll play or how much they'll play. However, Malik Williams (PF/C?) and Jordan Nwora (small forward?) both look like really good three-point shooters, plus Lance Thomas (PF?) has a much better looking shot (three-point range too) than any of the current bigs do.

No idea if any will be in the rotation immediately, but in the coming years at the very least they can spread teams like Virginia out. Coach P wasn't joking about recruiting shooters!

Sounds like a lot of options. These guys all sign LOI's?

They all signed in November and will be here for the 2017-2018 season. Nwora looks like a better shooter than anyone on the current team aside from maybe Ryan IMO. He is comparable to the Rowan kid that a lot of people were enamored with, but bigger.

Spaulding should shoot 1000 3 pointers everyday.....since he has little inside game to speak of. So should Anas M.

I don't know what Jaylen should do? Take ballet lessons or something to develop; some foot work.???

Jaylen should be given a dose of Ellis Myles DNA. He's missing the NASTY in his game.

Not trashing you B. Sometimes we agree. Sometimes we don't. It's called being human. None of us agree on everything all the time and that's OK.

I don't know much about incoming recruits, but I understand one is a 5-star kid and could get quicker PT.

We all know Pitino... If most or all of these frontcourt guys return (ex. Mangok), you'd think they would have the edge on incoming freshmen if for no other reason than how they play defense. I'd be surprised if anyone new starts over some combination of Anas, Jaylen/Ray, and Deng/VJ...
