DePaul

Can’t see how Ongenda can play despite week to week according to their coach stating a few days ago? He had a surgical procedure. Yor Anei was game time decision at the St John’s game which he did not play in and STJ took great advantage of.



 
“Joel Soriano took advantage of the absence of DePaul’s top two big men, Nick Ongenda and Yor Anei, with his eighth double-double of the season. He was dominant, producing a 17-point, 14-rebound, two-block performance that included a monster jam which brought the large crowd to its feet. One of the most improved players in the country, the 6-foot-11 Soriano rebounded from his off night against Iowa State. When you talk about what was the difference in the start, I think that was the difference. We started inside,” Anderson said. “We got some of their guys in foul trouble, and then it opened up the lanes where we could get in there and attack the basket.”https://nypost.com/2022/12/07/big-east-st-johns-bounces-back-in-big-way-to-beat-depaul/

Can Kalu/Z.O./Hamilton have a big game Saturday afternoon if they’re out?

Soriano is a skilled big. He’s a handful.

Athletically, we are a better team. The issue has been allowing DePaul too many offensive rebounds and second chance points. If we clean this up, we’ll be in the game at the end.

And fouling on three-pointers.

As athletic as he is, Onyema doesn't board as well as he should. Is it positioning?

Agree. Our bigs seem to chronically be out of position. I wish we could just play straight up man to man
