what? losing an entire frontcourt after the season
Were losing 2 Skilled Big BUT
Nysier Brooks is going to steal some of Kyle's minutes this year. His offense is growing quickly and he is an elite rim protector already.
IMO the 5 spot is spoken for with Brooks. Then backed up by
Nsesome, who from insiders, is said to have an extremely high motor and rebounds and blocks shots very well already. Just needs offensive work
Then at the 4 you have a few options:
Diarra: 6'9 Skilled Stretch 4 who can shoot jump shots. Raw but could be polished up really nice as a high energy stretch 4
Scott: A 6'8 Soph with tons of bounce, defensive energy and is getting better offensively. He needs to put some lift into his jumpshot but ultimately could be a starter his JR year.
So were are technically 2 deep at that 4 and 5 right now.
This class is EXTREMELY weak with Bigs, so I'd rather not waste a scholarship on a project big when we have 4 already.
Also, for the 2018-19 season I could see UC running out a small ball Skilled lineup of Broome, Cumberland, Williams, Evans and then Brooks at the 5. Diarra could back up the 3 and 4, with T. Moore backing up the 2-3 and Jenifer backing up the 1 and 2 other bigs backing up the 5.
We NEED a future PG but we don't need a big this class IMO
