Yea calling them the Fab 5 is not fair to the Duke players or the actual Fab 5. It probably also gets them at least two additional loses from the added pressure.

I like the name "The likely 5 Starters" better.

I was thinking that Baker is not a starter at the moment, but that may just be me. I would think Bolden starts with White, Baker, Javin, Goldwire, and the slim reaper coming off the bench.

I would agree... I think RJ will be the most consistent scorer. He has kind of an old school game about him. Athletic, but not a tremendous athlete... A good shooter but not great... A guy who is going to adapt his game to whoever is guarding him. Exploit their weakness because he is strong in all offensive aspects. Smaller guy guarding him, he will post up and either finish over or with a little fall away, bigger guy he will take out to the perimeter and either take off the dribble or pull up. He will probably have the most shot attempts or at least he should... I know Cam likes to shoot... and Zion will want his attempts too. Would love to see Cam settle less for the long jumper, penetrate and distribute or finish. I know they say he can run the point, in the game I watched he settled for long jumpers... Would love to see Zion use his strength to his advantage. Safe to say he won't go against anyone stronger than him... Taller but not stronger. Learn some post moves in addition to his ability to attack of the dribble.

Then just let Tre bring them together, get the ball to the hot hand and Marques anchor the defense, rebound and score with that lefty hook, or finish off dishes from the others penetration and putbacks.

It’s not just you. No way on God’s green earth do 5 freshmen start.
