Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 4639319, member: 2117"] Reese amidst some games with foul trouble still was able to stay on the court 34 minutes per game (36 per game in SEC play) which is a huge number for a post player. Adding depth is helpful but having a player like that on the court almost every minute negates the need for ample depth. Especially since LSU can thrive with a 4 out lineup with their plethora of guards and wings. I haven’t seen much of Del Rosario but know she’s a top ten recruit. Time will tell, though they still might pick up Morrow or another big from the portal. In regards to Van Lith, not much needs to change. Her percentages are extremely similar to Morris’s from this year and Hailey Van Lith knows she isnt going to carry the same load she did at Louisville and her responsibilities will be different. There will be an adjustment period adding her into the lineup and establishing her role, but she seems like the perfect puzzle piece that LSU needed to fill Morris’s void. She’s a proven commodity, consistently plays well in big games and has the personality and toughness to fit in on the roster. Before Hailey Van Lith most had LSU pencilled in at #2. I don’t see it as a big jump having them be in contention for #1 now that they added in arguably the top transfer in the offseason. [/QUOTE]
