    -We're trying hard to get William Kyle, who would be one of if not the best athletes on the team.  

     

    -If you watch Milicic tape, he's got a lot more to his game than Allick did and he is not unathletic in the least. Based on his frame and shooting numbers you might assume he's Brian Conklin, but that he is not. He blocked 35 shots last year. Our highest on the team was 21 (Brice and Juwan). We haven't had a player with 35 blocks since 2018-19 (Roby had 66). 

     

    Those two guys would be instant, huge upgrades and impact players. Now looking at what we already have: 

     

    -Griffiths is more athletic and 6-8 compared to  Keisei's "6-2" and, try as he might, was a big liability on defense. Griffiths blocked 13 shots in 571 minutes last year. For comparison, Allick blocked 12 shots in 785 minutes. Keisei and Lawrence each blocked 1 shot in 800+ minutes. 

     

    -Eli Rice and CJ Wilcher were not athletic. Essegian isn't Lebron James but he's no stiff out there. 

     

    -Morgan is more athletic than Mast, especially if Mast is hobbling out there. 

     

    -Ulis and Worster will give us way more at the PG spot than Lawrence did. 


    We haven't added any high fliers or anything but I think sneakily we've gotten more athletic, and if we can get Kyle and Milicic (please!!!), I will be expecting us to be a Top 25 type of team throughout the year. 

    Eli Rice is very athletic.

    Someone at the game said it seemed like Juwan was saying his goodbyes to staff and teammates when he was subbed out the last time. Would be a bummer. I’m hoping the majority of our core comes back. Especially him.

    Around the 0:50 second mark Gary says something like, “we’ll be back here next year.”
