Ross, Cooper, Indrusaitis, Daubaris, Dort is a decent starting five. Will need Cooper and Daubaris to blossom, or maybe Indrusaitis continues his Pelle Larson career arc.
I am interested in seeing what Ruff gives them - tough to project the impact of a shooting guard with a suspect outside shot…hoping he can give them a little better than Carr’s frosh numbers, but out of the 2 spot (16 mpg, 3.8 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 2.2 apg)…I’d definitely take 4 & 3 with solid perimeter D right now in a heartbeat, as that would be a solid depth piece after redshirting last year.
IMO, Dai Dai was always most likely gonna be gone, given his NBA profile is lacking, Cal was already his 3rd school in 3 years and he seemed the perfect candidate to have a career year in MM’s offense. Capitalizing on that momentum in this crazy NIL market just seemed a done deal, sadly.
Carr leaving is disappointing, and incredibly soft…
Yeah, Madsen's teams look best on offense when they're defending well. (And why missing Rytis hurt so much.) Keeps us out of some stagnant half court sets. We're adding a decent amount of height so hopefully that will reduce some vulnerabilities on both ends.

Think Amier Ali might start? We also have Ruff coming up.

still wish we could have kept Dai Dai or even TT , oh well.... Ruff and others will have to step up.

Dau Baris! 🍻
Bro tall at 6'9" (or 6'10") and may still be growing. Can't wait for Madsen to get all the guys together in camp!
Mad Dog is slowly stockpiling Lithuanian talent - Daubaris, Indrusaitis, Kocanas
F-ing LOVE this!
