Nikki and Smith both seem like guys that need some time to develop
I know I'm in the minority, but I think you can develop players while playing them.
Both Nikko & Smith are athletic upgrades over Rosburg. Nikko is more ready physically. Smith is more skilled and really athletic.
A committee approach where both play around 10 minutes is likely what we will see.
247 has Smith ranked 252 and Nikko ranked 258. By comparison Anunoby was 280 last year. He averages 4 points, 3 rebound, and 1 combined block/steal.
Eron Gordon a 4* PG from Indiana had someone predict him to Mizzou today. It was the guy that covers Duke recruiting.

You can but don't expect to be .500 if you're relying on them.

We'll see. Rosburg looked pretty athletic in high school. Problem is, as with many these days, he never learned the inside game because he could excel in high school outside and slashing to the basket. It took him until 3 weeks left in his college career to figure out how to play inside. Smith's tape is soft. He's no where near ready to contribute inside. Nikko may be more ready but from what I recall about his film, he didn't necessarily look more athletic than Rosburg.
