Where does the scoring come from?

Whenever you have a big roster turnover, one of the big question marks regards who will be your go-to scorers for the next season. Since Deondre Burns is our leading returning scorer at 7.0 ppg, that means that new blood will have to be providing the spark this year.

Obviously, Burns' strong finish makes him a leading candidate. He had eight double-figure efforts during the conference portion of the season. Hopefully Oliver Black can up his scoring. He shot a decent percentage last year, but did not shoot much. Andre Jones has the athleticism, but his shooting percentage is going to have to improve a bunch for him to be of much help to us offensively. So, it looks like we will have to have a couple of scorers from among the new faces. And it looks like we have some good candidates.
