FANTASY STARTING 5 AND 3 SUBS ALL TIME ILLINI
« on: June 09, 2023, 11:41:22 AM »
Found this today, thought it would make for an interesting back and forth since it is June and off season.

https://www.yardbarker.com/college_basketball/articles/illinois_basketball_fantasy_starting_five_and_3_subs/s1_17169_38899583

Starting 5 for me all time: (college only-pro play don't count)

Dee Brown-His play/demeanor put the focus on ILLINI and that special run.

Kendall Gill - All time ILLINI flyer, enough said.

Nick Anderson - All time great, could play inside/out-G/F positions and carried on Benji Wilson Legacy with (25).

Nick Witherspoon - The original Double-Double player

Dion Thomas - Anchor for the All Time in the middle

Subs: Deron Williams - James Augustine - Eddie Johnson/Ken Norman (tie)

you could do this 2 ways best player by position or best team.  I think you would get 2 different rosters.

My take is this.


PG - Frank Williams
SG - Eddie Johnson/Kendall Gill
SF - Nick Anderson
PF - Deon Thomas/Ken Norman
PF - Brian Cook/Kofi Cochburn

I’ll go with only guys I saw, too. Tough to leave a few guys off, but if I’m trying to build the best team:

Deron Williams
Kendall Gill
Nick Anderson
Brian Cook
Kofi Cockburn

Frank Williams
Kenny Battle
Luther Head

9th man - Doug Altenberger

For today's college game, Deron Williams, Dee Brown, Frank Williams, Nick Anderson, Kenny Battle, Sergio McClain, Brian Cook, James Augustine. They can sort out who starts at any given time.

Next up would be Ayo Donsunmu and Deon Thomas. End of bench practice/spare guys would be Rayvonte Rice, Roger Powell, and Meyers Leonard.
