Monty said he wanted to prioritize spacing and he did exactly that last game.
Ausar: 17 minutes
Bagley: 16 minutes
Killian: 22 minutes
By contrast our better shooters played heavy minutes.
Ivey: 29 minutes.
Knox: 31 minutes.
Burks: 24 minutes.
These extra minutes for good shooters did not work (obviously), in part because most our good shooters aren’t available, but it is a step in the right direction.
Also I know Ausar getting benched is this subs 9/11, but if you prioritize spacing, Ausar might get a shorter leash for rookie mistakes, as he is the worst 3pt shooter on the team.
I think burks is an adequate defender and thus a two way player as well. The rest are young and will even out their games as the season goes
