Worse exhibition attendance ever? Less than 2,000. Maybe even 1,500. Everyone at the beach or didn’t have dvr so stayed home to watch the football game? Box score says 3,700… Maybe half that.

Think I predicted 20 wins before the game, after the first half I would of said 15 wins, after the 2nd half I say 19.
Henry did nothing the first half then asserted himself on offense in the 2nd. At one point knocking down 3 threes in a row. Seemed he did that alot last year too, waiting until the last 10 min of the game before attacking. I know he’s trying to get everyone involved but he needs to attack more in the 1st. He should be our leading scorer.
Clayton’s first points were a jumper from about 10 feet out. As usual he was strong on the boards and got some put backs. Still needs work on his free throws.
Was impressed by Lester in the 2nd half. He showed his athleticism. He knocked down some shots and wasn’t scared to attack the rim.
Blakely loves his threes, but was 0-3 I think. He has an odd shot coming from his shoulder. He had an opportunity to go up hard to the rim from 5ft out but chose a jump shot that missed. Not sure what to think about him. He’s a freshman though.
Cherry played well, missed some threes though but looked quick on the floor.
Thorne looked pretty good. Nice hook shots and a dunk. Didn’t seem winded at all.
Bryan looks like he can contribute some but wouldn’t expect too much on offense. He’s a freshman so he should improve. I’d guess he averages 2-5 ppg.
Damn I hate Darion Clark transferred. We would be a lot better with him.
Defense was blah. Gave up open looks. Played better in 2nd half but wingate missed several good looks. Defense down low is a big question mark.
