Our current roster reminds me of the 2016-2017 in many ways. Elite post players, experienced guards, and 7 footers coming off the bench. Unfortunately, Swanigan and Carsen only overlapped one year and Carsen wasn't Boogie yet. Carsen had an inconsistent but promising freshman year. There were definitely some highs but he also shot 1-10 against Kansas in our final game. Regardless, I am anticipating Jaden to a make a leap similar to the one Carsen made in his sophomore year. Carsen went from averaging 10ppg to 18ppg and became significantly more efficient.
