SJU Power Forward Portal Targets

Ledlum, Watkins, any other options?

Maybe twin towers? The team looks pretty good as it stands right now.

Disagree. Last year Ledlum and Soriano led the team in rebounding. We have not replaced that as of yet and if the team’s long range shooting is a bit suspect we better have superior rebounding.

The new guards are much better rebounders than last year’s group. Agree we need a power forward to get to the next level but I think we already have a pretty good team.

I too think the team is pretty good but a rebounding 4 is necessary to, as you said, get to the next level.

It would be great to get ledlum back or another strong 4, but I’m fine w Luis or Scott @ the 4 in a 3 guard lineup, if our guards rebound well

 

[MainMan]

I would gladly take back Ledlum even if he is under-sized.

Speaking of which, why doesn't everyone list their top 10 STJ under-sized power forwards of all time?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAH

Well Zuby and Vince better man up and take pride in that role this year.

We'll find out about Watson in 2 days.

Believe you mean Watkins and even if he withdraws from the draft could very well go on a money tour and drag it out another few weeks to a month.

I’ll say he doesn’t fwiw

Saw him projected to be picked #47 by the Magic in one draft list, but other mocks passed on him. Guess, we'll know 'something' soon.

 

[Storm Tracker]

Doesn’t withdraw or doesn’t go on money your ?

 

[paultzman]

Doesn’t withdraw or doesn’t go on money your ?

Does not go on $ tour

 

[paultzman]

Clarity week hopefully

The team that got to the highest level last year had a "rebounding 4" that averaged 5.1 per. As opposed to Kadary, who averaged 7.0 per.

 

[sjc88]

I think Pitino was pretty clear ( or at least that’s how I heard it) that he wants a PF type. So that means he IS NOT satisfied (?) that this is a complete team. Not yet.

 

[dk423]

FYI -- it sounds like players take NBA workouts on the day of the withdrawal deadline. Idk if that's the specific case with Watkins

 

[dk423]

Zach texted, "And, yes, it has been quiet with the basketball team. Still one open scholarship left. Should be news of some kind today."

Guessing that's referring to the hearing today.

Ledlum was unreal on the offensive glass, but he was a below average rebounder on defense.

Our guards this year will out-rebound just about everyone we face, so that should help mitigate what happens in the front court.
