How's it going y'all? Today, we're back with another Big Ten basketball preview. And, unfortunately, we have to talk about the Washington Huskies. The Huskies finished last season with a 16-17 record, going 7-13 in conference missing the NCAA Tournament.
UW will be going into the season without their top scorer from last year, Hannes Steinbach, who was drafted 14th overall by the Charlotte Hornets after averaging 18.5 points and 11.8 rebounds. They're also losing their 2nd leading scorer, Zoom Diallo, who transferred to Kentucky after averaging 15.7 points and 4.5 **** ists last year.
The Huskies will be returning Wesley Yates III, a 6'4" guard who averaged just under 13 points last year, although his efficiency could use some work after shooting just 37.1% from the floor.
One new name to watch is 5'10" PG Ryan Beasley, who's coming in from San Francisco. Beasley averaged 13.6 points and 4 **** ists a game last year, his lone season as the starting PG for the Dons.
The other name to watch is LeJuan Watts, a senior forward transfer from Texas Tech. Watts is coming in after averaging ~12 points and 6 rebounds a game last year for the Red Raiders. He played an undersized 4 last season, but is an excellent cutter and can step out and **** e the floor as well (37% from three for his career).
