With a full pre-season to assimilate, I expect Jeff to be a major factor next season.

The Pacers drafting Myles Turner is a pretty clear message on where Hibbert stands with Indiana.
Also, the Wizards just traded for Kelly Oubre, who will likely challenge Otto for minutes next year...

Oubre has tons of holes in his game and will need time. Right now he can dunk with the best of them but otherwise a work in progress

A lot of the recent ku highly touted guys (besides wiggins) have been busts. Thomas Robinson, Ben Mclemore. I guess he can provide depth behind Beal and Porter but could be a wasted pick. I would have preferred jerian grant as a backup to walk as we got torched by Teague/Schroeder when sessions and Bynum had to defend them. They just aren't fast enough.

Okafor to Philly doesn't seem great for Henry.

Oubre can't hold Otto's jock right now.

Oubre can't hold Otto's jock right now. Doesn't mean Wittman won't make crazy illogical decisions about playing time though...

Wittman is pretty mind boggling sometimes but if he plays Oubre at the expense of Porter, he needs to be fired on the spot.

Josh Selby? Cole Aldrich? Darrell Arthur? Jeff Withey? Julian Wright? Brandon Rush? All starting!

Wittman is pretty mind boggling sometimes but if he plays Oubre at the expense of Porter, he needs to be fired on the spot. FWIW, I recently spoke with an acquaintance who is on the Wiz coaching staff ( my one bball contact in this world!) Interestingly, he was not that high on Otto earlier in his career, feeling he was just too passive . He now says they consider him the best offensive rebounder on the team and a strong defender, who just needs to get stronger and work on the the NBA three pointer. He indicated that as of now, the plan is for Otto to START at the 3 and the Wiz hope/expect Pierce to return and start at the 4. Nene will come off the bench. They look at Oubre as a backup 2 and 3, who needs at least a year of seasoning to contribute much.
