I know it’s hard to really put your thumb on in a game that gets out of hand like this one, but the team looks to have some solid depth. Five players scored in double figures, guys played a ton of minutes, and I counted a lineup that was effective about ten deep.
Now, again, it’s Illinois State, but there’s not a lot of dropoff when guys like Musa Jallow, Jimmy Sotos, Zed Key, and Eugene Brown entered the fray. Hopefully, that will continue, especially when the perils of Big Ten play hit. Things often tighten up once the physicality and muscle of the conference play comes into play.
All in all though, this team should be able to go at least eight or nine into the bench even then, especially when Seth Towns gets healthy and is available to add to the mix.
