I like the thinking…

I think by next year, we will have the 6’4 guard part taken care of with at least one player that is currently on the team.

The 6’7 option you provide, we would need that but not sure we will. IF we did tho, we can always hit the portal (highly unlikely but option is there).

Pretty high bar for someone to come in and supplant Braden, Fletch and Trey as the guy to go to when you need a bucket. Would be great if we had someone step up to that level.

I was thinking more of having someone who COULD do it if you need them to. Not saying take over those 3. This person would ideally complement them and have that ability, but not asked to always go do it.

I think you need a guy who you can run iso, break down his defeneder off the dribble, attack the rim and finish or get fouled. I don't think Smith, TKR or Fletch have that in their game.

But gicarri, Cj and Myles do 😈 and if not this year, they will next year

Cox can get his own shot and to a lesser extent so can Harris. Neither is 6’7” however.

I doubt Painter goes looking for what basically is a replacement for Catchings. It’s more likely someone already on the roster fills that spot.

SWA I suppose is still a possibility.

Cox seems to be on the trajectory of what Carsen was like and can get his shot whenever and against anyone. SWA will not be that guy next year…he’s still a bit raw and not better than anyone we will have next year.

Haven't seen much of it from Colvin. If anything Heide has shown more of an ability to do that than Colvin.
GH and CJ haven't played a game yet.

Heide has shown little in getting his own shots and breaking people down off the dribble. Cox and Harris had it as part of their game coming in and can hopefully translate that to college level. It seems they’ve been fairly successful with it in practice, especially Cox. Myles has occasionally flashed his ability to get midrange jumpers but we need more from him. Believe it or not Fletch uses motion& picks as well as angles to attack the rim getting floaters and his sometimes unorthodox layups.

Smith can iso, but he works so well with ball screens that there is little reason not to leverage one.

TKR is great in isolation in the post.
