Call your Shot on Agbaji & Wilson returning
-
@approxinfinity agree. He would not be able to improve his NBA chances by returning. In fact, his minutes are all but guaranteed to decrease. And then what would he do? Probably force things, hurting both himself and the team.
-
I think this is a tough choice for Agbaji. It’s a “damn if you do, damn if you don’t” and he will probably face some criticism from those who unfairly look for opportunities to bash him.
Ultimately, I think the sign for him would be if a team or teams give him a positive response now so he thinks he will be given a real shot if he’s not selected.
I think if he has the right representation it may be to his advantage to not be selected at the end of the second round.
He is getting some floor time which should give him an idea of what the competition will be like moving forward. He should sense if he feels like he can compete and flourish in the near future.
I tend to agree with Marco and think he may not benefit much from returning. What he needs is personal coaching to lift his game to a higher level. He’s already at a high fitness level.

I admire Ochai as a college basketball player. I doubt I’ll ever admire him as a professional in the NBA. I hope he takes the Frank the Tank Kaminsky approach and realizes another year on a great college campus is way way better than a year on the bench in the NBA. I sincerely hope he’s great in the NBA, or at least has a long career. But I really don’t care that much how well our guys do in the pros. I want wins in Lawrence, not former Jayhawk stats in the league. May be a bit selfish of me, but, well it’s just sports, it’s what I want. I want 40 of them next season, no more, no less.

OCHAI BACK!!! LETS GET IT
-
LETS GOOOOOO

right thanks guy. Ya I checked puts us at the limit thanks again
-
Seen /read from a couple of other posters where they had seen that Martin will probably announce today also. - Keeping fingers crossed
-
I say that Agbaji and Wilson both return

Oh I’m so humble to you - - Ol Wise One lmao
-
Well. I appreciate Agbaji not dragging us around through the process. To me, he was gone until he wasn’t, and that checks in as a welcome suprise. Thanks Och.
-
now we have to set our sights on the one remaining. We need to weigh in on Remy coming. - I say he will be here , we will know soon

Some would say very soon.
-
@jayballer67 if he is gone, we go hard after Carr with solid minutes to offer. It would be shocking if Remy didnt come.

ya I think let’s think about this - - - - # 1 - - he is not projected in the draft - - - - # 2 - -he didn’t get invited the the NBA Combine OR the G League elite camp , so you would think it would be a no brainer - -but you just never know
-
Remy Martin is Heading to Kansas
-
Welp guess just found out the Answer - -he is coming to KU - - THREE FOR THREE - - -sooooooo , - - -LET’S DO THIS
-
I looked up Remy Martin. Drinks for everyone, but at 50 bucks a bottle, very small drinks for everyone.
-
Loaded roster but I’m still concerned that there isn’t a single player who shot 40% from 3. Hopefully, 2 or 3 guys can get going each game.
-
JCL was at 39.5%, so we’re all but there. Och was at 37.7%, solid. Yesufu was at 38.4%. We have some shooters.
-
I expect having multiple ball-handling/play-making guards will help players like Agbaji and Braun who are more catch-and-shoot type guys.
-
Question , how many minutes do we think Cam gets to play ? - - I think we COULD seed him if conditions warrant I could see in some games 10-13 minutes a game behind Dave. - he is a Big that can stretch the floor , I think there might come sometimes in the year we need a guy like that who can stretch the floor pull opposing teams Big’s out stretch the floor. - -I think he MIGHT just be like a little surprise player to some opposing teams. The big question with him is going to be - -can he defend at the P-5 level ? - -He defend D-2 but there is big difference. I still think he just might be a little more valuable through the year then some think - For sure can shoot from outside - going to be interesting with this roster , how some players pan out.

Cam makes Landen Lucas look like T-Rob athletically. Cam will only be able to play the 5 and against teams with bigs like Texas or USC last season, Cam will be nearly unplayable.
Cam is a guy that will have to be dependent on technique and positioning to be successful and that’s something KU’s bigs have traditionally been pretty strong at so he’ll be a solid scorer and rebounder in his limited minutes, but it should be in the 10-13 range.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I think the same thing about Cam almost totally
except maybe if we are up by 10 Self can sacrifice defense (yeah right) and let Cam and the other 38% trey guns bomb away with the thought that 3>2. Believe it when i see it, but the option is there.

You might have just suggested the plotline of the first basketball oriented alternate universe
.
-
I think that our starting 5 would be: Remy, Braun, Obaji, Wilson, Dave
Key Subs for Guards: Yesufu, Jalen Coleman, Harris - Bigs: Lightfoot, KJ, Cam
What is the role of other players?
Any redshirt candidates?
Who will be most disappointed with PT?
