I'm super pumped about the former 5 Star McDonald's All-American #1 PG of 2022 teaming up with Boswell in the Arizona backcourt. He drives to the bucket and plays great defense. Something we were missing at PG last season. He's had big games against great competition and his stats took a nose dive after the incident he was a witness to. Bradley is 6'3 and Boswell is 6'2. I know everyone was big on Nembhard, but he's listed at 6'0 and we all know he's probably a little shorter than that which would make him a liability against bigger guards. Bradley is looking like such a huge addition and a game changer for this upcoming season.
I know Nembhard is a great guard, but I was concerned about his size. For the past few years, we've been one of the biggest teams in the nation. I'd hate to give that up. I'm excited for Bradley and his potential jump into his sophomore season at Arizona.
I am super excited about jaden bradley bigtime addition.
If he improves his outside shooting he is a stud.
I was dissapointed when he went to bama.

Big Guards who can defend is a Plus. Ball handlers that can get to the rim is a Plus. Hope he can be a 80-90% FT shooter this season (also sidebar - Ballo to go up to 75% would be a HUGE development). Low Turnovers would be a Plus so emphasis on coaching ball security. Steals without fouling/foul trouble is a Plus.
We need 3+D players as a whole as I think Pelle should go pro. But if he doesn't, I can see him possibly holding down his 6th man role, holding off anyone coming for his job.
