They always have experienced players and a mix of young talent, which always helps in the tournament.


That's not really the case this year. They only have 1 underclassman that averages more then 10 min/game. This is an experienced basketball team. One thing that I noticed looking at the box scores for their losses, they seemed to turn the ball over a ton in those losses. I think that's going to be key. If LSU can turn them over and get out in transition I like our chances.

I agree with all of this but the underclassman piece, unless I'm missing some injuries to the young guys (and maybe I am )

They are crazy experienced with Winston being their rock. Dude is nails and has excellent court vision. He is their court general.

Here are their contributing young guys:

Xavier Tillman (sophomore) averages 10/7/2 and 23 minutes per game. He also has the highest PER on their team (26.4). He was also their leading scorer against Minnesota with 14.

Aaron Henry (freshman) averages 6/4/1 and 21 minutes per game. He played 34 minutes against Minnesota, most on the team, and had 10/9/3 stat line.
