They do. His name is Olivier Hanlan, but he was cut cause Dave Smart needed to meet his Carleton Ravens quota.

Wiggins missed Stauskas completely wide open in the corner

Hanlan would have been a lot better, yeah. Scrubb's defense was hilariously bad that half.

You guys are such whiny babies. They're just getting settled. CoJo needs to make his shots and Scrubb needs to tighten up the D. Everyone else is getting settled and doing fine. This is their first meaningful game together, just chill on wanting to see perfection.

Wiggins needs to take a page out of Scola's book, and start chucking every time he touches the ball.
