As I do every year, I'm going to go ahead and take a guess at the minutes distribution assuming Sears and Stevenson come back...

Minutes Distribution:

PG - Sears (30), Philon (10)
SG - Wrightsell (25), Aden (15)
SF - Reid (20), Youngblood (20)
PF - Nelson (25), Stevenson (15),
C - Cliff (25), Sherrell (15)

Easily the hardest time I've had guessing at the depth of this roster. Changed it a dozen times. Definitely could see Mallette or Cunningham over Aden or Mo taking some of Stevenson/Sherrell's minutes. Feel pretty confident Philon will have a role on this team as he is one of two that have a knack for penetration and might be the best on the team at it. Could see him getting some of Aden's minutes as well. I think I feel pretty confident in everyone but Mallette, Cunningham, Aden, and Dioubate having significant role next year (if everyone is healthy). Unlike every other year, I don't have a single player who I'm remotely confident won't have a significant role next year. Will be really interesting to see how it all shakes out.

The good part is most everyone on our team is big and athletic enough to play multiple positions. Probably Cliff is the only guy that is a 1 position player. A few of these guys could play up to 3.


The minutes will work themselves out. The young guys will need to get acclimated and it’ll give us a lot of different looks and lineups to throw at teams. Then when your random injury like Wrightsell’s concussion or a turned ankle makes someone have to sit you aren’t panicked. Wrightsell being banged up likely cost us a share of the regular season sec title.

Stevenson will want more than 20 minutes. He'll come back more developed in the offseason and if he'd known he'd only play 15 minutes next season he would have entered the portal a few days ago.
