D'Angelo is a Shooting Guard, Myles Stewart is more of a Small Forward on this team in my opinion and Alibegovic is a stretch 4 but Lavin I think will use him as a 3 if he can to get some more size and create match up problems for opponents.

I think we play a 3 guard lineup since that's probably our biggest strength and Dom is better off as an energy/defender off the bench player. Since D'Angelo is the strongest of the 3 guards, he plays SF.
Stewart can play either position I guess. IDK if Ali will play much at the 3, since IDK if he's athletic enough for that and we probably don't have enough good big men for that luxury. If he's good enough, he'll probably add some much needed big man depth and add some more floor spacing with Obekpa, Thomas and DeLarosa in the middle.
Heres a video of our two best players, gets me excited for the season.
Jordan starts it off and Harrison closes it out.

Agreed
I think you can always go to the hole more, but that dlo goes plenty. His ft's taken shows that.
Jordan finished at 27%, I believe, from the outside last year. However, he started something like 2 for 30 (I don't know if that's the exact number, but it was pretty bad), then got tentative, before finally coming around in February.
With all due respect to Bill Parcells, I don't think he is what his numbers say he was. He'll never be a sharpshooter, but he could probably shoot in the upper 30s from 3 this year, with a ceiling of around 40%. That's not too bad, and if he can get to that, it makes Harrison all the more deadly.
Well at first glance, and maybe this is something that will change later, looks like Felix did lose that whole year. Hopefully it was Felix's decision and that he is ok with it.
