Chris Holtmann's 2021-22 Roster Figures to Feature Extreme Versatility Within a Deep Rotation

With last week's addition of shooting guard Cedric Russell by way of transfer from Louisiana, it appears Chris Holtmann's 2021-22 roster appears officially set.

Gone are Duane Washington Jr., CJ Walker, Musa Jallow and Ibrahima Diallo. Washington was obviously the team's leading scorer, Walker the leading assist guy and primary ball hander, Jallow a defensive-minded reserve and Diallo, a bench player with honestly no meaningful playing time in sight.

New faces include Russell, Malaki Branham, Jamari Wheeler, Joey Brunk and Kalen Etzler. Russell projects as a ready-now backcourt scorer with a fairly comparable game to that of Washington.
