This will be the final preview article for LSU Basketball before their season opener against Alcorn State this Friday. If you missed it, I posted about the guards in this preview article here, but let’s cover the other half of the roster today.
Returning Players
From an offensive standpoint, Duop Reath is LSU’s best returning player, averaging 12.0 points and 6.2 rebounds per game last year. The early season loss of Craig Victor II piled a ton of responsibility onto Reath in his first year with the Tigers, and his lack of rest and backup support was pretty evident in his decline in defensive performance through the second half of the season.
