Preseason attempt based on expectations over actual play
Immanuel Quickley: A markedly improved over last year. Added confidence and nice touch both handling the ball and shooting from long range. I pencil him as the starting SG
Ashton Hagans: A- him hitting treys makes him a much different player. He does that and opponents won't back off and dare him to shoot
Nick Richards: A- The Nick we have been waiting to see. Big on the glass, moving well, playing hard
EJ Montgomery: B Still playing a bit soft but much better than last year. Better confidence too but still needs to develop some aggression
Khalil Whitney: B Kid can really jump. Needs to work on his midrange game though.
Nate Sestina: B+ will bring perimeter shooting as well as toughness and leadership. A really big pickup, one big enoigh that it could be the one that puts us over the top
Tyrese Maxey: B- Most will think this is too low but I am baseing on my expectation. Couple airballs, likely jitters.
Johnny Zujang: B Really good going to the basket. Didnt do what his reputation was....the bomber, but did do something we need on the drive and dink shots
Keion Brooks: B- Seemed a bit lost but still had some shining moments. He is going to be that solid depth guy given time.
Officials F Doug Shows, does not matter...he always gets an F
