Price BG Caron Villanueva Okafor (tough to not take Kemba or Bazz but AJP for $1?!)

I had Price, Allen, Rashad, Daniels, and Okafor but I think your team takes the cake!

I also just noticed they have Gay and Butler at the 4 which makes no sense since they were almost always utilized at the 3 with some exceptions. Obviously missing a lot of guys from the list too. Can someone reorganize the positions and ensure we have the appropriate players? I would love for this to be done right and would lead to some great lineups/ discussion.

Can anyone not on the board b considered as a $0 player.

Marcus Williams - 0
Ray Allen -5
Caron Butler -5
Toby Kimball -0
Emeka Okafor -5

They should beat any of the other squads.

You could build a dynasty with $0 players!

For the record, all those who double dipped in the PG bracket to take Smitty as their SG are weak. And yes, I'm plenty old enough to have seen Smitty play and know his value.

Saw this on IG, thought it’d be a great debate for the Boneyard. You have 15 dollars to construct the best UConn team.

PG = Walker
SG = Vital
SF = Bouknight
PF = Butler
C = Drummond

I think this gives us scoring inside and out, defense, ball handling, rebounding, and experience.

Chris Smith $2
Caron Butler $3
Ben Gordon $4
Emeka $5
Niels $1

I wanted Donyell, but the fall off after Drummond at the C is huge. Smith and Butler are the two best values.

PG: Shabazz
SG: CV
SF: Rashad
PF: Charlie
C: Emeka

I had trouble filling the SG spot, as I wanted Boat but couldn’t make the money work by moving down elsewhere. In any event, that would be a fun as hell squad

Give me a junior year Okafor at the middle and use the other 10 however you want because Emeka was the absolute perfect example of men against boys. Imagine Okafor at the 5 this year. +5 wins, no doubt, if not more!

If pushed to include one more, Giffey is a steal at 1 dollar, so use the other 9 for 3 other players!

Didn't even notice the columns. We can't cheat?

I didn't see anything in rules saying one player from each column but it's a bit more challenging.
Plenty of the players- Smith, Ray, Rip, Caronimo, Rudy and a few others played more than one position so mix and match based solely off dollar value can be viable. Tougher to do if you do it by listed position.

Caron and Rudy were 3's and are you joking, give me Jake and you can have both Brimah and Carlton. And what about Freeman and Adrien at the 4? I guess you can't satisfy everybody.

Caron at $3 really throws this whole thing off.

AJ Price $1
Ben Gordon $4
Bouknight $2
Caron $3
Okafor $5

The positions are pretty funny. Rudy and Caron as PFs. Jalen Adams as an SG.

Keep in mind the person who made the chart is probably a teenager and doesn’t know too much about UConn basketball history.
That being
True.
Toby Kimball is the 2nd best center ever at UConn. And Wes Bialasuknia and Tony Hanson should be there as well.
