Washington seems to be a slasher/driver (similar to Elgin Cook) more than an outside shooter as his 3-point shooting is only around 25% but he'd have multiple games with double-digit FT attempts.

Yeah Cook with good defense is a good comparison. Almost 3spg and 3bpg is unheard of.

G-Will Richardson/De'Vion Harmon/Rivaldo Soares
F-Eric Williams/Isaac Johnson/Lok Wur
C-N'Faly Dante/Frank Kepnang/Nathan Bittle

If that roster stays healthy, we are really only one more forward away from competing. Another guard for depth would be nice too. But that's a solid roster. If Johnson/Dante/Kepnang can improve next season, we will be a good team.

I don’t think Bittle is really a C. He is more a 3-4.

For sure, depends on the matchups but he will be a nice versatile piece for us. Coach DA really likes guys who can play 2-3 positions.

Could be a Boucher type. Wing on offense and rim protector on defense.

I think people are going to be surprised at Bittle's physicality despite his thin frame. Nobody is going to mistake him for Kazemi on the boards, but he doesn't shy away from contact.

At the pro level he's a 4 but in college he can absolutely play the 5 if necessary, but I do agree we'll see him playing on the wing and high post primarily on offense.

Is this kid being recruited by Altman? Backed off his commitment to UK because he wants to be closer to home. He's from Issaquah. Seems like a good fit in our system.

Yes, Oregon is recruiting him. I think especially since it looks like TyTy isn't too hot on Oregon, Nolan is a priority.

Guerrier is committing today at 4 ET on Thursday.

Who are we still recruiting and how many more do you think we are taking for next season?

Joseph Young's brother or a combo guard recruit.

Lots of chatter about Young being a duck.

He is, according to this. https://scoopduck.com/s/5428/quack-duck ... _content=0

It will be interesting to see who starts and where. Altman will probably be tweaking the lineup until mid season. Lots of options. Can go small we with guards, Richard, Harmon and Young, or big with Bittle at the SF.
