This is a senior/veteran heavy team with the key underclassman being Huff, Stromer, Innocenti, and Diagne. It’s going to pretty hard for Mark Few to not go deeper in his bench than he has done in the past. It’s been a typical 7-8 man rotation for him but next season, he looks to have 10-12 players who can potentially play serious minutes and make major contributions when out on the floor. Take a look at the possible depth chart below.
PG – Nembhard, Hickman, Few, ArauzMoore, Orness
SG – Hickman, Battle, Stromer, ArauzMoore
SF – Ajayi, Venters, Stromer, Battle, Innocenti, Haaland
PF – Gregg, Huff, Yeo, Haaland
C – Ike, Huff, Gregg, Dianne
