He's still the teams clear cut best player. Wayns is a very good finisher. I am also surprised how poorly redding has played. I think hes worse this yr then last. The forward play is interesting. Pena was expected to be a little like Cunningham/clark were (late bloomers). hes still a junior and the only veteran forward available. Mouph looks good, albeit out of sync from being sick. Armwood looks ok too, but raw. Sutton seems to watch the play and also lose his place on the court. I liked his dunk and shot altering against ?Marquette?. Nova's always been a guard heavy team so its not too big a deal that they have new players starting/being sick at the 4 or 5. Pena was "rushed" compared to previous big guys. Suttons still able to do some minutes just based on size. It should be interesting to see how the forward spots plays out. I thnik they might have a 4 headed rotation until one player (Mouph?) is the true starter. I hope they dont need a 4 guard rotation. No way they'll win the nat championship with that.
