My starting 5 post Catchings addition

What's awesome is that the bench has starting 5 quality

Baker >>>>> knell

almost feel like you need to have mag out there right at the start of every game

Catchings and Demin need to start

I could see that. What a balance of youth and maturity

That’s what I would predict. Great line up

Heard Baker has been the standout in practice. Be interesting to see how he fits

A healthy Baker is a game changer for us, either starting or off the bench

My guess is he's hard to keep off a starting lineup. He, Richie & Mag might be in a tight battle for the final spot.

Too many people don't understand how good Baker can be. IMO, if he stays healthy, he is a top 3 player for us.

just glad he's healthy

Maybe Baker starts and Richie is the 6th man

Doesn't everything about Richie scream perfect 6th man?

Love hearing Baker's foot is healthy and holding up.

I'd think the main contenders for tht would be Mag or Baker for Richie. (Egor, Richie & Mag being defensively versatile)

The Purdue podcast guys that have been linked to a couple times below were high

He earned himself quite the defensive rep at Rutgers. His knee injury put a damper on his buzz, though.

NGL - looks like a final four team right there

Jun 18, 1:06pm

With another spot to fill!

Fous over Keita.

Baker is a starter, and probably MVP.

roseyscenario

Jun 18, 2:20pm

over richie?

VinnyBYU

Jun 18, 2:23pm

IDK. Still 1 more add. Richie may be as good a 6th man as Jax. So Maybe. All that's clear is Keba/Fouss lock at center,

Knell is not a starter with this group of players. And honestly shouldn’t have

Wait, we signed an actual DEMON now? Can he abide by the HC for 10 months?

Mag will start IMO.

Demin, Catchings, Saunders, Hall, Traore

Whatever the starting 5, the bench rotations will be SOLID!!!

texaskevin

I think Richie is just that energy guy as the 6th man.
