Gimme Your Projected Lineups and Minutes

[ImTheVillageIdiot]

you’re so concerned with shooting that you say we could miss the tournament, and now you’re hesitant if oweh returns with his 35% three point shooting? you’re running from your own narrative. take the bet.

He won’t. Go look at his post history.

 

[blue cincy]

Starters to begin season

J Lowe PG 23 mpg
O Oweh 2G 28 mpg
D Aberdeen SF 24 mpg
M Dioubate PF 20 mpg
B Garrison C 20 mpg

Backups

J Johnson PG/2G 6th man 18mpg
C Chandler PG/2G/SF 7th Man 18mpg
K Williams 2G/SF/PF 9th man 18
A Jelavic PF/C 8th Man 18 mpg
T Noah SF / 2G 10th Man 7 mpg
M Moreno C 11th Man 4mpg

J Quaintance PF/C When able to come back will switch the entire set of minutes. HE will start when ready.
JQ will get 20 to 24 mpg
All the other numbers BG MD AJ will change
(MM will not play much).

Lowe, aberdeen, oweh, diobate, garrisson are the starters
- Jasper is the sixth man
- Williams and Chandler play 10-20 min per game
- JQ and and jelavic play good mins as well, but eventually JQ overtakes BG as starter

If jelavic takes off I can see him and MO D splitting those numbers or Jelavic surpassing him in minutes. Either way it’s a good thing means both could be kicking some major ASS at the 4.

Williams, chandler, Johnson gonna be interesting to see

That could come down each game and match up. Who’s got the hot hand or playing some glue defense on a player teams run lead sets for.

Even with Oweh returning UK won't finish in the top 15 of offense according to KenPom by the end of March Madness. UK will more likely be in the 30-50 range on offense. If UK shoots less 3's than this past year it could be in the 15-30 range. But my guess would be around 35.

Then you should easily win the bet right? Take the bet.

He just had a top 5 offense with half the talent.

He had a top 15 rated offense in 2024 at BYU. His best 3pt % shooter was Trevin Knell at 38%, Waterman was 37%, Saunders was 36% and Jaxson was at 35%. He didn't have a Koby Brea.

He also didn't have an Oweh, a Chandler, an Aberdeen, a Kam Williams, or a Lowe, that can get to the rim at will.

You should take the bet, let me rephrase, I hope you take the bet.

I can see this working out for the most part except for Moreno. Nobody in the Mcd’s game is going to a school to be 3rd string at 3-5mpg like some fans think.

Found a really nice graphic on the roster and its versatility.

3 players that they list playing 3 positions on the court. This roster definitely has some flexibility and depth out there on the court.
