Core Rotation (averaging 15+ mpg):
Starters: Andrews, Walker, Blackwell, Edwards, Bartley
Subs: Felder [or new Portal], Buggs, Fontleroy
Secondary Rotation (averaging 7-14 mpg):
Portal Guard (or Felder), Abraham or Vasconcelos
Deep Bench:
Van Gytenbeek, Ferreira, Abraham or Vasconcelos
Do expect one more portal guard, highly needed.
Expect designated situational units [small ball against press, big against size, shooter against paint packing D, finish quarters O, finish quarters D, etc.]
Load management practices will be utilized extensively
Minute limitations will be real
Medical history will play a big part in load management processes
Benching as teaching tool is back [finally have numbers to sit players to get their attention]
Will be shocked if any player averages over 28 mpg, and if more than 2 players average over 26 mpg.
No longer killed on boards. Transition O returns as rebounding improves.
Players better be ready to fight for their minutes.
