00:00 >> For me, I think it's Mark Williams.
00:03 I think just seeing him as a really good shot blocker.
00:09 I didn't see much of him in high school, but seeing him live and
00:12 playing against him, shot blocker.
00:15 You try to block everything.
00:17 Sometimes he goal tends, but most of the time he blocks it.
00:20 So I think just having that rim present really helps.
00:23 And then he's more skilled than people think.
00:25 We can give him the ball and he can score a basket for us.
00:30 I think Mark Williams really stood out for
00:31 me in the first couple of weeks of practice.
00:33 Yeah, I think just getting stops and getting out in transition.
00:39 We have a lot of athletic guys on our team and
00:42 just showing what they're capable in transitions is very special.
00:47 And then for the freshman class, each one of them brings a unique skill set.
00:53 I'll start off with Henry, his energy, rebounding,
00:56 does a great job with it, brings it every day.
00:58 That's what he brings.
01:00 Mark, shot blocker, can finish a really good lob threat.
01:05 As you know, Jalen, out in transition, very special, very special.
01:10 Jamin, really can shoot it, can defend, can drive.
01:14 He surprised me a lot too.
01:16 And then of course, DJ can really shoot, can really handle,
01:19 can really get to the rim.
01:20 And then Jeremy, just really good point guard, really calm point guard.
01:25 So I think our freshman class is really good, and
01:29 I think they don't get as much attention as they should.
01:32 So I think they're just all really good.
