My focus would be on close games. How many minutes will Cumberland get in those games? I don't care if he only gets 20 minutes in blowouts. The yearly average will be lower than big games or games that are too close for comfort.

Evans probably averaged 25 minutes in games with comfortable leads but got 35+ sometimes when the games were close. They key question IMO is how many back up minutes will we need at different positions when games are close.
If Cumberland makes a similar leap that Evans made from frosh to sophomore...Jesus Christ, look out.

I think next year may be the first time in a looooong time where our entire starting lineup individually averages double-digit points-per-game. It any team can do that, it's this team.
