What's next - looking for the next in line to be the 10th man skilled worthy? Consider this - use whoever is skilled within the (whole) roster as the next man up to do the job where needed.
or just trust the coaches that are getting paid millions. This roster is ridiculously good. Top 4 in the country to start the season and people still think we have holes lol

Just looked and saw no news about where Sincere Harris is going to be for his senior year, and he is still listed as in the portal. Don't think he could be a regular rotation player here but, if you need a defensive cooler to shut down someone like Fears and disrupt an opponent's play when they go on a run, Harris would be the guy. We have plenty of offensive power, so wouldn't need him to score. And if steel sharpens steel, he would be good for our ballhandling practice. I know this is beyond unlikely, but miss watching him play defense. Hope he lands somewhere soon.

Yeah, no idea why he hasn’t landed somewhere.

I love Sincere, but bringing him in to our team just doesn't make sense. 1. There just isn't room for him given how many other contenders for PT we have at his position, and 2. If we were to bring him in to be a "defensive cooler" it wouldn't make up for how much it would cool down our offense playing 5 v 4 on the other end of the court.

Morillo can play 1-4. Williams 2-3. And Ethan Brown. There's likely enough depth there. I think Williams could come close to what Sencire gives defensively (and he probalby doesn't hurt you as much offensively).
Andrej and Jake can also easily be in the lineup together with Vaaks or Coleman
