we would have killed running havoc in dhaka’s first year after cam ridley broke his foot.
back court:
•isaiah taylor- lighting fast PG who scored, distributed, shot a ton of FTs, and was just a dog
•demarcus holland- 1st team all big xii defender, team captain, all effort, high iq player, coming off a season where he shot .464 from deep on 1.6 attempts
•Javan Felix- senior with a ton of starts, solid role player with a knack for hitting big shots
•Eric Davis Jr- big XII all freshman team
•Kerwin Roach- crazy athlete born to play havoc, big xii all freshman team
•Tevin Mack- long, rangey player who’s better in transition than the half court
front court:
•Connor Lammert- stretch 4 who could rebound shoot, smart, high effort player
•Prince Ibeh- Big XII DPOY, legit guarded all five positions at various times, unreal rim runner and defender
•Jordan Barnett- shaka never used him but he absolutely could have should we have deployed havoc.
you add kendal yancy and shaq claire to this mix and that’s a 10-deep rotation that can throw a ton of bodies at you, coming in high energy wave after high energy wave, pressing in all different manners, and trying to get out in transition.
now to be fair, we did just fine without switching to havoc after big cam’s injury, but i have always felt strongly that we would have been hell on wheels for opposing teams had we gone to what shaka knows best.
