With the overall height and length of this roster, I don't foresee us playing much "small ball."
I think I like Hensley at the 5 with what we have. We really need a big to space the floor out for our slashing rim finishing guards.

Plus lots of rebounding will come from the stable of athletic wings.
So, agreed, unless the opponent has a true big man who is a big scoring threat on the floor.
I think this roster along with Nagy's style would support Hensley at center at times much more than in previous Saluki teams. I had been very disappointed in our spacing the last few years. We have the athletes now to get to the rim whether it be by fast breaks or good spacing. Like you said, Hensley would stretch the defense opening up driving lanes. Anyway, gives us more versatility. Also, really excited to see so many guys who can get their own shot and get to the rim. We have really lacked that aspect.I think I like Hensley at the 5 with what we have.

Pat Monaghan to Wyoming. Interesting development for Scottie Ebube.

Hopefully Wonders & Ebube stay out of the MVC
@salukiworld why wonders couldn’t shoot last time he was in the mvc
@quatroschallengesaluki I don’t remember wonders being that great of a shooter for us. Did he improve at Green Bay ?
Really? He would come off the bench cold for a minute or two at a time, and still shot 35% on the year, thats not only not bad, its pretty good. Shot 38.6% last year, i'd take him.@salukiworld why wonders couldn’t shoot last time he was in the mvc

Wyoming has lost a few players in the transfer portal, so it's possible Ebube ends up there (maybe Wonders, too). If so, he'll need to be in tip-top shape. Laramie's elevation is 7,165 feet.
My guess would be Ebube to Wyo, Wonders stays at GB (favorable geography for him), but we’ll see. Good call on the altitude issue out there.
@quatroschallengesaluki in 7 minutes per game at Siu he scored 2.6 points a game.
in 30 minutes a game at Green Bay he averaged 7.6 ppg. I’d like us to reach higher than a three point shooter not even cracking 8 points in 30 min
in the horizon league

I watched a good number of GB games this year and, as most already knew, he can really shoot. But................ as I have said time and time again, his defense is not just bad, it's really bad. It was so bad that they took him out of the starting lineup after the first few games. He would get eaten alive in the valley IMO.
@insaluki he also wouldn’t even be good enough to play on the current roster. Honestly ebube, Johnson and Davis probably are the only kids good enough.
