That's what 2 Lottery picks look like! You gotta play Will 35 minutes a game from here out.
No more bringing him off the bench...

I'd honestly start him at the 2 over BamBam.

KJ 6'6
WR 6'8
BH 6'9
MOREZ 6'9
TOMI 7'1

POSITIONAL SIZE MATTERS WHEN YOU ATTACK THE RIM!

KJ and Will are going to get all the love but let's not forget Tomi and Ben both had pretty solid games. Ben with 9, 6, 4, and a block. Tomi on a bum leg and still recovering 18, 11, 2, 1, 1. This team is sooooo much better on both ends when Tomi is in

I thought Ben and Tomi were also very good on D.
I expected Garcia to torch us tonight, Ben's guy most of the night.
Usually when Ben is on D against the other team's best big his offense tanks, not so this game.

Basically only 7 guys played & all played well.

I know it would be a little bit of a kick to the gut to lose two studs in Riley & KJ to the draft.. But how amazing would it be for our program's perception to possibly have 2 lottery picks in the 2025 draft???

It's also possible that Tomi goes late first round if he keeps getting better/gets more healthy, especially if we make a deep run.

Tomi consistently has had these low usage, incredibly efficient 18 and 11 games. I love this guy.

I NEED 3 years of Morez and Tomi starting together.

Humrichous would get eaten alive by opposing 3s

The amount of pressure that kinda height and shooting forces makes it tough.

Can you do that lineup against Purdue and Braden Smith? Maybe not. But it goes both ways.
