IF Brazdeikis returns...
You replace Matthews with Livers in the starting lineup.
But expected development from the 2018 class plus the addition of Wilson & Bajema should (along with Brooks) at least yield a very strong 3-man bench with hopefully a 9th and maybe a 10th who can give minutes.
3 seniors in the starting lineup plus Poole as a junior (second year starter) and Brazdeikis as a soph (second year starter) makes for one of the most experienced lineups in the nation.
Next year's team - if Iggy is back - is going to be stupid good. Like, ranked #1 at some point good.
PG: Simpson (Brooks, DeJulius)
SG: Poole (Nunez)
SF: Brazdeikis (Wilson, Bajema)
F: Livers (Johns)
C: Teske (Castleton, Davis)
I still worry about Simpson's lack of shooting skill, from the field or the line, but Brooks and DeJulius should be perfectly capable of taking on more minutes when needed, and the rest of the roster may be so overwhelmingly good that your lead ballhandler not being able to shoot may not be any kind of issue.
