Message: [QUOTE="Hey Adrien!, post: 3347430, member: 5787"] Providence is where they are because of their poor backcourt depth. David Duke is legit, but more of a two-guard. Maliek White is an OK player, but more of a support guy. They brought in LuWane Pipkins this year, but I don't like his game. Although Pipkins has good energy, is a good ball defender and distributes well, his shot selection is egregious and that's especially bad considering he takes the second most shots on the team. Once he graduates and Jared Bynum takes over next year, the team will likely be a lot smarter on the offensive end. When we get to play Providence next year, their team will look very different. Diallo/Young/Pipkins/White/Holt all graduate. They have an underwhelming '20 class, but Bynam and Horchler are solid transfer gets and we'll see a next step taken by Gantt and Reeves. Here's what their team looks like in 2020-21: Horchler Reeves Watson Duke Bynum Backcourt bench: Breed Wing bench: Gantt Frontcourt bench: Monroe, Nichols Good wings, underwhelming frontcourt and great starting guards but no depth. I'd be surprised if they don't get a high minutes grad transfer next year, but they should be a bottom-half at best or bottom-quarter at worst Big East team next year. [/QUOTE]
