Ody looks like he will be very good eventually. But for now, I wouldn't mind seeing less of him on the floor and more of him on the bench. Gets out of position a lot on defense and has very limited offense.

Fun team to watch. Just a lot of energy out there.

Thought Koval had a pretty nice game today. Vik should lead minutes for bigs but tough call after that. Koval is pretty active and agile and can shoot. Ody is perhaps a little to jacked up at times and Ado has not been very impressive thus far.

That would be my order 1. Vik 2. Koval 3. Ado 4. Ody. Ody can move up as he matures, he gets out of position and out of control trying to do too much. Ado physically looks more impressive than Koval, but Koval has outplayed him thus far.

Lakhin it's a bit hard to get a read on how he would do at center, since he has almost exclusively played the 4. I'd like to see him get some minutes at center though.

Ody/Ado may improve, but we've got enough other guys and lineups we can try to prepare for if they don't. Perhaps work Hensley in at the 4 to see how he does so Lakhin can play more center.

Viktor is going to be the real deal if he can stay healthy.

Late game coaching mistakes. Mason should have been in. And MAW is and will always be the late game FT guy. Zero clue why he was inbounding.

Dd could be a damn good player if he had any sort of mid range. Struggled tonight.

More Viktor. More koval.

I do like that Wes Is letting guys show him who he can trust and not just go off last season.


But overall I’m happy as hell.

First 5 minutes and final 10 minutes of the game left a lot to be desired, but otherwise, there were some very fun stretches of basketball in there and the positives outweighed the negatives.

We did great on the boards and didn't turn the ball over/foul that much - those are two areas where we've already shown a significant improvement over last season.

It seems like we're just going to have to take our lumps with the outside shooting.

Hopefully better ball movement/screens along with dribble drives/kick-outs deliver more consistent open looks as the season goes on and we hit a decent percentage of those.

Long gone are the days of someone like Jarron or Jaevin hitting multiple contested 3s every game.

Next year Skillings should be a Dude like that.

I think Davenport and Mason will be fine with volume 3s. Mason has a quick trigger and Davenport is tough to block as well because he shots from so high. Tough to get Mason a ton of minutes but he probably needs more to catch a run

Still early but starting to look like a 5 guard and 5 big main rotation.
