There should be some good competition for minutes at the four and five positions. Morgan-Elliot would not have been good enough to see the floor on next year's team. Garcia, Mickonowicz, and Idowu will battle for minutes at the four. My guess is that one or more of those three also will be the primary back-up at the 5, depending on how good Noveroske turns out to be. I think that Cook will start at the 5. Mickonowicz has enough skills to play the 3, I think, but I expect Goss to continue to start at that position.

Barring injury, the Rockets should be a significantly improved team next year. I am still a bit concerned about a back-up point guard and general depth in the backcourt. We may need heavy minutes from Lockett and Wiard.

Kudos to northcoast for identifying Garcia in advance as a good possibility for the last scholarship.
