I would, but unlike some, I am not a huge fan of Murauskas in the SEC. I don't love guys who play below the rim offensively, and I think he will get abused on defense.

I would prefer a more athletic PF who is still a threat from the perimeter...even if not as MUCH of a threat as Murauskas

Yea I kind of agree as well. Maybe an athletic 4 as a backup or freeman from Syracuse

Yes. I'd like to add a combo guard and one of Desean Goode or Donnie Freeman. Plus another serviceable front court player.

Switch in Avdalas for Vanterpool and I’m 10000% in.
I wouldn't be for that switch. I'd much, much prefer Vanterpool over Avdalas at 2G. If UK landed Avdalas I would want to see him mostly play SF. He can pass, but he can also be a turnover waiting to happen. Avdalas has the big "talent" label and thus big perceived upside, but he hasn't gotten close to consistently showing it yet. But don't get me wrong, I like the potential of Avdalas too and would be very happy to see UK land him. I just like Vanterpool (and a few others) better in that 2G spot, and maybe have a more conservative opinion about where Avdalas was at in reaching his upside last season.
