Tough to bench a guy who leads the B12 in assists and has the highest ceiling on the team

mjmill

And our offense doesn't score when he's not in the game

nephicoug

I would play him more.

Lifer

I'd switch Baker & Saunders. We need another playmaker & shooter

SinkingQuffa

Saunders leads the team in scoring and the defensive look of Demin, Saunders, Mag is dynamic in length on perimeter D

mjmill

7:28am

I don't agree with any of this. Richie should play the max minutes possible.

Lifer

7:32am

One of the worst takes I've seen on this board. Saunders is our leading scorer. He scores more per min. than Baker.
