I just think no one knows exactly what we have. He clearly has some game.
We need depth inside even if he is Trayvon Williams out of the gate.

That’s never stopped anyone from overhyping players before lol

Heard this several places today…

Hope he’s right, but I don’t put much stock in Wishnowsky. He’s just a cheerleader.

Sounds like it’s a possibility we’re getting Terrance Shannon Jr. tomorrow 🤷🏻‍♂️

That would be amazing.

We need a big.

In the meantime, we’ll take exceptional college players at any height.

Would love Shannon. Could lead the on the perimeter as the young guards/wings come along. Get a decent big for more depth and we will be good.
I think we can even do better than 14-18.

I've got some concerns about chemistry if we get Shannon.  Would still probably take him, but not if it costs us any of our returning players.

Shannon looks like a bigger athletic wing that we have lacked who has been a proven productive player at this level.
Not the primary focus of the offense, but his experience would be good.

Agree we do not want RJ, or Goode going anywhere.
Should be enough minutes for Clark/Epps/Shannon/RJ/Goode at the 1-3 in that order with Harris trying to break in at times this year. Also could go with smaller lineup with one of the 6'6" guys at the 4 at times.

Inside right now we Dainja at the 5, no backup other than Hawkins, Hawkins and Rogers at the 4.

Would love a backup 5 who can guard in space, rim run, rebound, and protect the rim at a basic level. (Like Payne was supposed to bring).

I'd be mostly worried about Hawkins given those weird comments he made the other day.

Did you see the entire interview? It puts the comments in context. He was asked a weird question about exit interviews.  He is looking forward to taking a leadership role.

Yeah, one never knows about Hawkins. Pretty unique kid and talent.
It is like trying to keep a race car from going off the road.

My guess is certain guys we want to keep see the types of NIL promises we have to make to pull a guy like Shannon and wonder what they could get.  We'll see, I suppose.  Hopefully soon.
