To me the only ones that count are POSTseason. I’ll go with ONO and Bueckers.

 

[MilfordHusky]

The Noon time slot includes 3 of Geno's fellow Italian buddies: Bruno, Bozzella, and Tartamella.

 

[Centerstream]

To me the only ones that count are POSTseason. I’ll go with ONO and Bueckers.

I agree with you. I hope by the end of the regular season that Liv has developed into an elite "big" in every aspect of her game.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Geno at 12:30 tomorrow!

In the BE, size can do a lot so I'd say Liv and Paige Kardashian.
