Agreed. Howard was athletic, big, and well organized. Williams showed his leadership chops and willingness to do anything to help his team win. This was a good win against a team that is similarly ranked to Penn but clearly dangerous.
It was touching to see so much passion from Howard and Towns - to be out there so many years after the other players. The announcers pointed out that most of the players probably knew little about who those two were. Those guys deserve a great season. Williams is a physical and determined guard, but he still didn't appear to be a dead-eye shooter. Towns has the shot, but didn't have the explosiveness that he had in his peak. Both are warriors.
It will be interesting to see if Slajchert can take himself to the next level as a senior team leader who can carry and guide the team in tough situations. He is showing that potential in the early season.
