Small Forward

We are a little thin here. I am assuming that this spot is Rajon Tucker's to lose. We had good reports about him in practice last season, and he is a good size for the 3-spot in the SBC. He put up some nice numbers at FGCU. However, if he doesn't cut the mustard and we have to play smallball (even smaller than it looks like we will have to play), Deondre Burns might slide over from the 2-guard position. Or, if we go the other direction, maybe one of the new guys can fill the bill when needed, but we have so little information about them that it is hard to speculate. We have a bunch of players in the 6-7 to 6-8 range. Hadzic came in advertised as a European-style big, but we had to use him otherwise. Maybe he slides out to the perimeter more this season if he can find his shooting stroke.
