let me start out by saying Marian looked like an average HS Team

Ballo- Love him so far. Fills the middle. Rebounds, plays D, hangs around the bucket.
Rice- Best player on the team. Lighting quick in transition and can shoot.
Tucker- Only played against Marian but unlike Mgbako, a true 5 Star. He can shoot outside and create his own shot.
Goode- Very confident in his shot. Great form. One thing....the ball hasn't gone in yet
Mgbako- Looks the same as last year. We will see if he improves.
Galloway- no comment, injured. He might not get minutes if Tucker keeps getting better
Cupps- Can't play passive this year. Rice will take all his minutes
Reneau- He's looked really good. Would love to see him develop a 10ft jumper.
Carlyle, James, Newton, Hatton- remains to be seen
 
individual assessments don't matter in games like this.

Did they execute?
Did they hit shots?
Did they win both halves?
Hit free throws?
Move the ball without turnovers?
Force bad shots/turnovers?
Rebound?
Deny passing lanes?

We were just way too big and fast for Marian to handle. Scored easily, kept the pace up, and really took over on fast breaks.

Our 3-point shooting still needs work, though. Had a rough night from deep, but you could see Goode finally got the feel when he had a couple of 3s go down.

Tucker looked smooth and confident, nice finish at the rim from a lob... Definitely keep an eye on his minutes as the season progresses.
