C - Poeltl, Olsen , Mawien
PF - Chapman, Reyes
SF - Loveridge, Kuzma
SG - Baeler, Tucker, Miller
PG - Taylor, I. Wright, Ogbe
I'm assuming everyone returns unless there's a formal announcement to the contrary.
That's a pretty potent front line on the offensive side. The biggest question mark would be rebounding and putting two starters out there who kept taking themselves out of the game this year with foul trouble.
That's a tough backcourt as well. Lots of shooting, decent ball handling, good defense and a slashing scoring threat that would be a new wrinkle.
I think that lineup would give this year's lineup a battle. I'd take Poeltl as a soph and JO as his backup over Poeltl as a Fr with Dallin B as the backup. Chapman and Reyes next year over that same duo this year, Ditto for Loveridge and Kuzma. and the PG trio of Taylor, I Wright and Ogbe. The big question mark is how much better is Delon than Baeler. I'll assume, until Baeler shows otherwise that the gap is significant because Delon was a baller. Not saying Baeler isn't. He just hasn't proven it yet.
