As we start to get a feel for pt and roles, a guy for the Bears is Boone. Tough inside player who is gonna get his 20 minutes either starting or off the bench. Hard to keep him off the boards , has the instinct, effort, and bulk.

Shaq Morris isn't likely to get the stats for this, but he is emerging as a candidate for consideration.
He's a pretty fit and trim 6'7", 265. Plays solid D and runs the court well in transition. Good post moves, and surprising ups and quickness getting off the floor for a guy with his bulk.
Wessel has been doing surprisingly well as a 6'4" stretch 4. His D against taller players has not been a problem. His hustle, rebounding, and overall play is going to make it tough for Morris to get significant minutes in big games. Morris will be the first option off the bench at PF. Going to be tough to knock Wessel out of a starting spot - especially in Valley play where a small PF isn't much of a disadvantage.

DAP is even more so. U shoulda saw the alley oop he had against utah st, thought it was way to high of a pass somehow went up and got it and slammed it on a guy. Freakishly athletic.
