I assume Kim will go with a big starting frontline this season. My guess for starting lineup:

PG: Ursin
SG: Pointer
SF: Bartlett
PF: Aifuwa
C: Gusters

Ware and Hall will add good backcourt and front court depth. I hope Hall can make a full recovery from her knee surgery.

Gusters is very good although I think she needs a little more time to get into better shape. Aifuwa being here for one more years gives her that extra time before getting into that full time role. Moon is not a PG, I think Pointer is a much better distributor. The difference now is Pointer has a reliable shooter to knock down a open shot along side her.

PG: Pointer
SG: Ursin
SF: Probably Shematsi (size and versatility) but they could go small ball for more shooters on the floor.
PF: Newby/Petty/Bartlett (this seems like the most competitive spot)
C: Aifuwa with Gusters off the bench

The 3 and 4 spots are the most up for grab spots on the team. Kim in general does not start a lot of true freshmen but I anticipate Bartlett will be in the mix given her size and skills early on. Its kinda hard to predict lineups given the brand new systems they are implementing and certain kids coming back off injuries

Only 3 of the 6 kids Nikki signed last fall will be on Kim's first team, Ware, Hall and McNeil. Hall and ware have a lot of upside though.
