Taad is/wants to play off ball more, him and Overton will largely be occupying the same role to a large degree, assuming Taad does return.


Overton would be just fine overall at the 3 really, he's about the same weight as CBM was playing the same position, just a bit shorter. He might actually improve defensively since getting beat off the dribble seemed to be his biggest issue.

Get another real wing that can shoot 3s as well as a primary PG that can defend and shoot threes well and we'd be in good shape there. Obviously Freeman can be that 2/3 backup if stays. Overton, Tahaad, a solid 1 and another solid wing can easily have the starters average 28 mins a game and the backup wing getting 22-23 mins in a solid rotation. That's basically what we had in 2024 with CBM, Denver, Kelly, and Tahaad.

He has a lot of potential so someone will fling cash at him.

Does this mean Haad will be at the 2 and we will get a true PG in the portal?

I hate that. The kid is just scratching the surface, IMO. Hopefully he finds his way back home.

Damn shame he turned out to be a liar. Oh well, he will be forgotten and replaced.

Weird stats for that guy.. 23 years old already, only averaged 5pts a game last year, but shot 43% from 3. Not sure what to think other than I hope his price tag isn't big.

Freeman was a big time rebounder and finding his shot, but not yet aggressive in a set offense. I was hoping he would be like an Okoro and Chuma next year.

Maybe this guy can be that
