Next Years Projected Minutes (most likely)

[BirdistheWord]

w/Weezy

Amazing how deep this rotation goes, and I dont have PSandfort​

Weezy 30
CJF 25
Keegan 25
Nunge 24
CMac 21
Joe T 18
PMac 18
Perkins 13
Ulis 12
Kris 8
Josh 6

w/o Weezy (Keegan and CJF will have to push higher volume of shots)

CJF 27
Keegan 27
Nunge 25
CMac 23
Joe T 20
PMac 20
Perkins 15
Ulis 13
Kris 12
Sandfort 12
Josh O 6

Too low on CMacs minutes.

If this is what we want to see, then I'd like Weiskamp/Fredrick/Murray/Toussaint to all get close to 30. Maybe 20 for Nunge, and then Pmac/Cmac/Ulis/Perkins off the bench. All the bench minutes really just depend on who takes the next step, could see a lot of people in the mix there, including the freshman if he's truly a lights out shooter.

Too low on CMacs minutes.

I think that is quite possible. I had him roughly "flat" vs this year. My rationale is that the post feeds will be less valuable or at least less frequent. We do lose a lot of experience, though, so his leadership will be important.

What do you think his ceiling is for minutes?

Good question. I built it as what is "most likely" vs "what I want to see." Though not sure those would be radically far apart. I would probably lean into Ulis and Kris a bit more if it were up to me. I just dont see JT playing 30 minutes, maybe 25, maybe. He has looked a lot better the past couple games, but i worry about his focus for 25-30 minutes per game. CJF could probably play a few more, I would not be opposed. 25 for Keegan seemed like a big increase and he will need to be really careful with fouls, as will Nunge.

The post feed could be more important assuming the agility and athleticism of Keegan or Kris. To some degree that is also true of Jack who Is more of a quick mover in the post. All of which are less likely to get doubled down low.

Too low on Kris Murray's minutes in either scenario.

Good thing Weiskamp is coming back next year...........

I think he is probably 28ish minutes. Plus or minus 2.

Sandfort is going to have to play a bigger role if CJ’s injury problems continue next year. I think Keegan will turn himself into a great shooter, but there’s a lot of inconsistent/unproven shooting there. Don’t know how much time Nunge will have to practice if he’s rehabbing for long.

After consulting with Margaret, here you go:

20 Joe T
20 Ahron

27 CJ
10 Tony Perkins
03 Payton

25 My 2nd born son
10 Keegan
05 Payton

27 My first born son
13 Keegan

27 Jack
07 Josh
06 Kris

With Nunge's injury history, I hope they will be shopping for another post player in the off-season.

I think Kris does have some of the biggest potential to go from virtually zero to some meaningful minutes. I went with a more cautious prediction but agree with you. Probably at expense of some of the guards like Perkins, Ulis and even newbie Sandfort.

 

[BirdistheWord]

Yes, that is, I hope, the top end. I feel like mid 20's minutes maybe more likely. If he can get his 3 Point percentage up into the mid to high 30's, then I would feel better.

With Nunge's injury history, I hope they will be shopping for another post player in the off-season.

Yeah, I did not factor that in but I am sure they will be looking.

? I had it 50/50

I dont pretend to be an X's and O's savant, but my assumption is that the pure low post feeds will be less and we will have more motion. But you do bring up an interesting point. With the lane less clogged, if Nunge and Keegan can add a few moves and get more comfortable, there could be some opportunities. I think either way the implication is my minutes assumption for CMac is probably the low end of the range.

This reminds me of trying to hand out salary increases during annual review time. Its tough, not enough cash (or minutes) and plenty of worthy team members.
