Despite my disappointment of passing on Djurisic, I actually think Larsson looks nice.

He’s a bit older at 22, but like Jaime should be able to have an instant impact. He’s not the polished scorer that Jaime is, but as a good sized 2 guard he looks to be able to shoot and has solid athleticism. I mentioned before he gives me Christian Braun vibes from the footage I’ve seen. Seems to play with fire and energy too which I like.

Looking forward to seeing how he goes in SL.

This team is going to be fun to watch. A number of interesting names

Alondes and Swider should probably come in and dominate. We've seen a number of bottom of the roster guys come in and perform well the following SL. These guys will be fighting for legit spots at the end of the bench (especially if we lose Herro/Duncan) and Swider could be the next shooter in line.

Ware and Larsson will be heavily watched as our draft picks, obviously. Ware is going to be asked to play from Day 1 and Larsson is 22 and should not need much time sitting.

Pullin and Keshad are both high end 2 way prospects. Keshad has a lot of traits that I liked about Haslem coming out of UF.

Josh Christopher, once upon a time, was the #8 player in his high school class

Isaiah Stevens was a top mid major guy. Caleb Daniels had a nice college career.

Bryson Warren was on the GLeague team last year, they had to like what they saw in some sense to bring him to SL.

Even Warren Washington avg'd 1.5 Blk per game at TT.

We have some actual point guards on the team this season, so that'll probably help the team out a lot. Not familiar with Warren Washington, is he a future Sioux falls staple?

I am not a huge fan of the players the Heat drafted so I am curious in what they seen especially Larrson. I consider Pullin and Johnson as draft picks. I am curious to see will the Heat experiment something new with Larsson and,even,Ware that wasn't seen in college

Excited to watch todays game. It shouldnt take long to see if Larsson, Johnson and Pullin are the real deal or not. And to see what the staff have seen in Stevens in practice.

The last roster spot is likely to be held open for Williams or Swider or someone suprising impresses
