The integration of MK and Yanick is going quite well

This was a big worry for me. Seems to me the success of this thing has a lot to do with unselfishness and a team-first mentality that LB's been preaching since time began.

Should have been the case after last years UVA game. Maybe the biggest on court blunder since Larry's been here. Markus was always a great high/low passer

Did you notice, after the huge shot block, he was looking at Yanick while doing the finger wag in this picture. Yanick stood up and gave it back to him. Loved that!

I'm a huge Yanick fan. I'm so happy to see him emerge this year as a force in the post. But let's also not forget the MK/Cunningham combo. That has worked very well too.

We also saw a decent amount of Ben Moore at 3, playing alongside MK & Yanick. That's a big ole lineup with Manuel or Brown at the 2.

If Sterling could be a 3 pt threat (his % is actually not that bad), and I know I'm very biased, but I'd put that line up against anyone. Anyone.

They went three bigs a lot against UConn. Most we have seen this season. I think it kept us fresh defensively on the perimeter. I hope we see it that frequently moving forward. You would think Moore would get beat off the dribble but he does such a great job denying the ball in the first place that you never see it happen.

our bigs all play well together; they are always looking for each other and that game Saturday was just incredible how many easy buckets they got
