I talked to an individual who has some intel on how the basketball team is looking. Just some nuggets:
Anthony Batson, Jr. is very athletic. That’s an exciting thing he brings.
Oziah Sellers can really shoot. That’s standing out in practice. Like a legit 3-point threat.
Chisom Okpara looks like the real deal. Could be a 15+ points per game kinda dude.
Physicality is going to be a main point of emphasis for this year’s team. Kyle Smith felt like the key to beating Stanford last year was just being more physical than them. The individual I talked to agreed that Spencer Jones brought that physicality and toughness, but alas, he was hurt too much. They also felt Brandon Angel was the most complete player on the team last season. Just in terms of all-around play. Too bad he left for Oregon, but he had his reasons. I think he just wanted a change of scenery. Can’t blame him.
That’s about it. But still kinda interesting to get their insights nonetheless.
