Let's looks at it...
Tre Jones will assume the primary role as PG and K loves having a high IQ players with the ball in his hands. Both Cam, RJ and Zion will also have the ability to have the ball in their hands. The difference is, at least in my opinion, is when Tre has the ball he's looking to set up others first and then be opportunistic but when the other 3 have the ball they will be free to create for themselves but if the D collapses on them they will dish it. It will be fun but will take time come together. I also feel like Jordan will thrive in this setting too bc he very much looks to give out assist and his D is solid already.
Wings- Cam, RJ, Zion and Alex (and Jack). On offensive they will all be wings and spread the floor. I'm assuming Zion will get time roaming the high low post to give options for the 5. But all will be cutters in the lane. On D, I think it's game to game who assumes the role of guarding the opposing 4, although Zion would be ideal bc of his strength and long arms as well as his shot blocking ability. Cam could find time there too as could Jack. This group could be incredible if depth with Alex and Jack continue to develop and contribute good minutes. Alex scoring and Jack rebounding.
The 5- let's face it, Bolden could be a monster in there if he comes back. He needs to be more assertive and stay motivated and healthy. Javin would be just as athletic as the wings but needs to add some inside game and he's a walking foul. These fixes will come in time. Vrank adds size and Sr leadership although not experienced.
This could be really fun especially if Bolden is back and it all comes together for him.
X factors
- What if Trent return (unlikely, but what if)
- what if Bolden leaves
- what will offensive rebounding be like bc Duke is spoiled with Carter/Bagley
