Lineup No. 7

PG: Dajuan Harris
G: Nick Timberlake
G: Kevin McCullar
F: KJ Adams
C: Hunter Dickinson

Most sources suggest that a McCullar return is nearly impossible. That doesn’t mean we cannot explore what the team might look like if he does return to school.

Any lineup with McCullar will lack shooting, so Morris was slotted out, and Timberlake was placed at the two-guard. Super senior McCullar, KJ, and Harris? Nobody is scoring on them. There is a serious chance that less than 100 total points would be scored in some games with this defense. Kansas would be playing slow-paced basketball in boring games like Virginia does.
