One of the guys who looked a lot better was Royce Williams. He isn't the flashiest player, nor is he a "big" name, but he is solid and will do the little things to help the team win games. He could start some games and other's come off the bench, but he is the guy that the Cats need year in and year out. The Glu guy. He is the guy you can count on to do the same things every game: play solid defense, hustle, and provide an offensive spark or bucket when needed. He has improved his game a ton, was quicker, and you could tell his knees where not bugging him as much. Maybe another reason why Gelaun isn't here??
Another guy I was impressed with and from everyone else, he didn't do much for them, was Fuller. The dude's offense is going to take some time to come back. He was on a mission 4 months ago. He isn't going to suddenly be all-world, but for where he was four months ago to where he is now, is a great sign of his work ethic and toughness. He is 6-6 playing against guys who will both be 1st teamers and could be POY candidates. He is new to our program and didn't looked lost to me. What I really liked was his willingness to help the team succeed and his toughness. He fought for rebounds, attacked the rim, and most importantly, is a wall on the court. He had some killer screens that really opened up lanes for other guys. Also, I like his enthusiasm and excitement. He is also a Glu guy.
