Really excited to see Doug McDermott and Tony Snell.

Doug McDermott because the majority of people's concerns about him are in reference to how he matches up against defenders with NBA size and athleticism. I know he will help us regardless because of DRose's ability to drive and kick as well as our offenses ability to create open shot's for shooter's, but I want to see how McDermott does creating his own shot.

Tony Snell because I want to see how he's improved his game coming from his rookie season into year two. He showed flashes last season but was inconsistent.

A guy that I can see making the roster is actually Brandon Paul. He's a guy that played really well for the majority of his time at Illinois, is an experienced guy being a guy who stayed in school and also is a player who does a good job of scoring and creating his own shot.
