I'm not sure if you saw this one. The opponent seems to have a reasonably tall team. He is taller than most, but they are not small. His athleticism still looks good to me.

He is clearly athletic and also clearly a big body. We could have used both those traits last year. Providing spot minutes as a defense and rebounding specialist as he further develops his game can be very valuable for us.

Looks like he has good footwork also.

This guy can jump higher than anybody in the league now. That should be worth something.

The opponent's center (15) is a 6'7 junior.

If nothing else, MLL and Mosh will face much stiffer competition during practice, which can only be for the better.

That’s right. And all of us should remember that Mosh was our starting center for most of last year and is 6’7”. Interestingly AJ was only 6’8” as is last year’s Ivy POY.

I think the starting forwards on Ubochi’s Williston team were 6’8” and 6’7”.

Let's hope Moshkovitz never has to play center next year. A healthy Lorca-Lloyd, Spinosa with a year of experience and hopefully this kid, should allow Michael to concentrate on playing the four where he can maximize his effectiveness.

Who knows, maybe Larson makes a leap too. I suspect the pandemic robbed him of some needed development time, and maybe he kind of catches up to his body.

I’ll also push back gently re Mosh (I seem to have somehow become his biggest fan on here). I think there will be instances where we want him playing the 5. The problem last year is that a lot of the time we had to (and there were a few games where, when he was out of the game, we were playing with Martz there). I don’t mind seeing Mosh at the 5 when the matchups dictate or when we want to try to change things up. But we need a legit option with size on defense every game.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this kid. Hope he develops.

I agree we should not dismiss Larson. I suspect he is filling out as we speak and from what little I saw of him, he can shoot some which distinguishes him a bit from the others.
