Wake me when we play Kentucky

What’s to say Sion even wants to start ? He can play alot more freely in the second unit and help keep the tone .

You do not start Sion unless there is an injury to Proctor or Caleb.

Sion had NBA workouts last summer and is currently second round on some drafts. It's not like suggesting Proctor be our 6th man was some personal insult. Proctor will play 20-25 minutes either way. Sion can play; and has an NBA build. I think Proctor can start ahead of Sion, but he may need to improve to do that. Maybe he has. This summer I suggested Foster be our 6th man; but Foster has looked better so far. Still early of course. Kon seems to have the 3 spot locked up. To me so far only Kon and Cooper are guaranteed starters. Probably Mal as well. We have a lot of options.

Be careful with the Kon and Cooper love fest. Honest Competition will adjust to both. This is when you will need Sion, Maliq, Gillis and Proctor/Caleb. Kon and Cooper have not seen the 'grown men' yet. Their talent is flourishing right now. Muscle, Strength and Experience is on the way. We need to make the adjustments for them we didn't do for Flip.

Gonzaga barely beat ASU today - makes our thumping of ASU look more impressive.

Kentucky starts 4 seniors/grads and one junior, which will provide a test for our younger team. (they are all transfers though) Despite our 3 transfers we start 3 freshman, a junior and sophomore, which is par for the course for us the last decade. I imagine we will be favored; I'm hearing 7/8 but that seems high. Their PG is that guard from SDSU who went to the final four a few years back. He's tough. If they gel they could be a sweet 16 type team.

Duke will force Kentucky to beat them on the inside, don’t think Kentucky will. The Blue Devils shut down Kentucky’s 3 Point shooting on Tuesday night.
