I’m not expecting a lot from Mitch but if he can efficiently make 1-2 (3’s) per game and make the defense guard him they can play both the High-Low and the 4 Out offense with him on the floor. The key is to bring his defense to the floor without being a liability on Offense.
@jayhawks2010 - I agree, Lightfoot will play a minimum of 15 -20 minutes if only for defense & rim protection. Depending on his offensive improvement I’m hoping it’s over 25 minutes. McCormack is not a great defensive center, we will need the combo of Lightfoot and McCormack to be competitive.
@approxinfinity Thanks for the welcome!
I really went back and forth between Wayne & Marcus. Marcus gives the better perimeter def/off player but I felt that Wayne and Joel would be devastating in the high-low offense. They could both dominate in the high and low spots and average 35+ pts combined. You then have 3pt shooting with Chalmers & Mason at 47% and Josh Jackson at a surprising 38%. (This is all based on each players final season stats)
We as KU fans are lucky to have such great players & difficult choices:
1 - Mason($5) or Collins($5) similar #s but I chose Mason because he was a beast rebounding. (Mason= Clutch/Scorer/Playmaker/Rebounder)
2 - Graham($5) or Chalmers($3) both great but I chose Chalmers for the value at $3. (Chalmers= Clutch/Scorer/Playmaker/Defense)
3 - Rush($4), Wiggins($3) or Jackson($1) Rush is best but chose Jackson for the value at $1. (Jackson= Playmaker/Defense/Rebounder)
4 - Semien($4), McMorris($2) or TRob($5) People are sleeping on Semien (SR YR 20pts/11trb) (Semien= Clutch/Scorer/Rebounder)
5 - Embiid($2) or Dok($3) Embiid for $2? Please… From bench warmer to best player on team in 1 season (Embiid= Scorer/Defender/Rebounder)
