We are last year’s team with slightly higher ceiling b/c of

Two freshman v only one last year. They both will grow this year and maybe take us a tiny notch higher. Otherwise, largely JJ is Wesley and all others are the same. Hubb is gone, but Wesley and Hammond more or less are his offense and defense. Lubin isn’t Atkins today - but probably is close to a tie within 10-15 games and maybe more at times given the athleticism difference.

In short, if we string 2-3 good shooting nights together we can easily be a S16 team and maybe even E8 with the right draw. We also could get bounced early if we start with a cold night.

Campbell may also be a wildcard - because he could become a legitimate sub if we have foul trouble - which we didn’t have last year.

Hammond will allow us to attempt to rotate out the worst shooter each game. We can’t really do that today.
