As of this writing, here is who we have available for next year, not including any additional transfers or signings that occur after this:

Guards:
  • Tyrin Lawrence 6'4"
  • Scotty Pippen, Jr. 6'2"
  • Isaac McBride 6'1"
  • Trey Thomas 5'11"
  • Braelee Albert 6'5"
  • Peyton Daniels 6'2"
Forwards:
  • Dylan Disu 6'9"
  • Jordan Wright 6'6"
  • Myles Stute 6'7"
  • Quentin Millora-Brown 6'10"
  • Akeem Odusipe 6'9"
  • Gabe Dorsey 6'6"
As I was reviewing the final KenPom data for this year's team, a few curious notes popped out at me, some of which may surprise you:
  • Clevon Brown played in 17 out of 25 games, and only 32% of available minutes for the whole season
  • In virtually every meaningful way, QMB was a vastly better player than Clevon Brown. I know, I'm as surprised as you are
    • QMB also played 19 out of 25 games (due to Covid), and "only" 25% of available minutes. But he had a 118 Orating, 70.3% effective FG%, 13% offensive rebounding %, 14.6% defensive rebounding %, 9.3% assist rate, 21.0% TO rate, 4.7 fouls called/40 min, 2.6 fouls drawn /40 min
    • Clevon Brown had an Orating of 88, a 52% effective FG%, only a 3.5% offensive rebounding %, 14.6% defensive rebounding %, 2.9% assist rate, 25.9% TO rate, 4.0 fouls called per 40 min, and 2.2 fouls drawn/40 min. The only places he was better than QMB were in fouls called/40 (4.0 vs. 4.7), block rate (5.3% vs. 2.2%) and steal rate (2.0% vs 0.7%).
  • Dylan Disu is even more valuable than I thought. He had an O rating of 111 while being used in 23% of the team's possessions, 56% effective FG%, 8.5% offensive rebounding %, 26% defensive rebounding %, 9.6% assist rate 4.4% block rate, 4.5 fouls drawn/40 mins, and shot 73% from the line.
  • Jordan Wright has improved enormously from his freshman to this sophomore year. His Orating went up from 88 to 100, his effective fg% went from 40% to 54%, his assist rate went from 5.7% to 18.1% and his fouls called/40 mins went from 4.7 to 3.8. The only downside was his TOrate went from 19.6% to 24.3% even while his usage rate stayed about the same, at 22%.
  • In theory, at this point, we seem to have an okay starting 5 of Pippen, Wright, Disu, QMB and whichever of Thomas, McBride and Lawrence is playing best. Behind them, we have 2 incoming freshman, the other two guards, Odusipe who barely played this year, Stute who had 1 good game and that's about it. If the whole team gets an offseason program and develop, then maybe we have some quality. It also depends on what is done with the two outstanding roster spots that have opened from Harvey And Obinna transferring.
