A more in depth review:
Bucks played 8 deep. They did not play freshman Jaedon Ledee, who was assumed to get minutes that would have gone to Micah Potter. When Wesson got in foul trouble, Kyle Young moved to center and they played small.
In any event, Kaleb Wesson looks like a dude in the middle for the Bucks. He can post up, step outside for a three, and even played some defense. Kyle Young played the power forward/backup center role, and he looked like a strong effort guy, getting strong rebounds, playing good defense, and getting some opportunistic offense.
At wing, Andre Wesson played great defense, and made his two three point attempts. He wasn't much of a shooter last year, and if he develops into a shooter, he can really be an impact player.
The guards were a mixed bad. CJ Jackson wasn't super efficient, but was very clutch. Luther Muhammed looks like he might be something. Woods and Washington didn't do a whole lot. Musa Jallow had some strong plays and not so strong plays.
In any event, nothing too shocking, except that I really didn't expect them to win, and they they had a double digit lead for most of the second half and won by 8. The defense was strong, as expected, though Cincinnati wasn't expected to be great on offense. The big question is who would score for them after losing so much production, and it was a pretty even split there. Kaleb Wesson was the high scorer with 15, but four guys were in double digits and you can see there will probably be a different leading scorer every other night.
