Can they both start together when Kennedy's injury heals? What does starting five look like when everyone is healthy?

It would depend on the opposing team match up. If we were playing a team that plays a true 5 and a post at the 4 MK and Tolbert might make sense. So far we have played teams that spread you more and their 4 is more of a perimeter player. In that situation Ben Moore is money because he is quick enough to guard the perimeter. Tolbert has been a beast but he competes more for MK's minutes than for Ben Moore's minuted. Plus you can make a decent argument that Ben Moore has been the best player not named Nic Moore so far this season. Ben has taking his passing to a whole other level this year.

Makes sense - it will be interesting to see them both on the floor in those match-ups you outlined

We have the luxury of a 3 man rotation for our bigs and all all very productive, so we will see different combinations of those 3. The strength of Tolbert Kennedy & Ben Moore is what is going to allow Semi to redshirt and may allow him to pursue a graduate degree before he's done at SMU
