Malcolm Thomas is an NBA prospect and rounding out the less notable; yet, capable players are Tim Shelton and Tyrone Shelly-two big, lengthy individuals that will destroy in the paint. Oh, did I forget Brian Carwell, the true center out of Illinois.The athleticism, size and power of this team are impressive. NCAA’s for sure and a second round appearance is achievable.
