1. I have previously been pretty hard on Dort. Offensively he was a black hole last year. This year Dort has been playing much better on offense. He has had a couple of poor plays offensively but nothing like last year.

  2. Chet is a beast. We will win a lot of games if Chet stays healthy and continues on his present trajectory. He is killing it in the blocks category and seems to have ice water in his veins when he shoots the Trey.

  3. Cason Wallace looks like the real deal so far. What a steal so based on his play so far.

  4. SGA seems to be picking up where he left off last year.

  5. Holmgren is filling that void that we were missing last year in the “big” category.

  6. This is going to be unpopular but Giddey has very sweet passes but he is not currently in the top 6 players on the team. Right now Giddey is the weak link as a starter.

  7. Joe is in a bit of a shooting slump but has improved as a player overall.

    I think point 6 is harsh on Josh- he’s absolutely still at worst a 4th/5th option on this team, literally had an efficient 16/6/6 last night. He talked about how drawing more fouls was his main priority coming into the season and we need to give some time to see that. I don’t even think he needs to be a legitimate scoring option to be a valuable starter with his playmaking (especially considering our other scoring talent), just as long as he shoots well enough to be space the floor and draws enough fouls on his drives/cuts.
