Vote before the close of this poll Tuesday. Kam not eligible, because he's our known star.
David Joplin.
Will be good for 16,5ppg+ and 6rpg+, up from sub 11&4 last season.
3P shooting better than 38% (up from 35,5) and FT shooting back to ~80%.
Will rebound and put back inside, will shoot it at an elite clip from the outside, and will even score some from the mid-range when he gets going.
Defense will be just sufficient enough, but offense will help carry the team alongside Killa Kam.
Vindication tour coming for Jopwagon, answer the call!
Hoping Chase can stay healthy this year and go off.
I think Shaka has already suggested that Chase makes a big leap. I also think Ben and Zaide can.
I went with Stevie. He averaged 11.2 ppg when Kolek was out. I think we see Stevie take on a much bigger offensive role this year.

Stevie without his right arm in a harness should be a step in the right direction.

I thinks it's Ben but this would be fantastic.
I voted Zaide. Love his potential, and I think he'll progress quite nicely as the year goes on. Also think Jop will surprise us this year, and we will be pleasantly surprised.
Agree with you on Zaide. Jop is who he is.
I won't be surprised if pretty much every rotation player will have improved a lot.

I agree with this analysis
I hope it's Gold or Hamilton. If either of them have a breakout year I think it bodes well for team success.

I agree with this as my biggest question coming into the season is how we will defend down low.

He actually went as far as to say he has been their best player since starting practice...and if Kam is healthy and that holds true we should be very good.
Damarius Owens. He is already "out"; with an injured toe?
Ross seems like the most obvious answer but I picked Gold. Felt Ross should have improved more than he did last year, but we'll see. Hoping Ben can be more confident offensively and average as much as 10ppg.
No Ramsey, so didn't vote

Injuries robbed us of a season with TKO, Oso, and Ross playing to his full potential

Doesn't appear that Shaka was lying.
Is it too late to remove my hopeful vote for Gold?

Why? Have you already lost hope?
