  • MATT SLONE says:

    Pleasantly surprised at where we are in August. Knight & Lamb are better than I expected. Miller, Liggins, & Harrellson show vast improvement. Lots of potential scorers, very athletic, & play with high energy. Can’t wait for Kanter, Vargas, & Jones (when healthy) add to a strong nucleus.
    Like opening Christmas presents 2 months early!!
    Go Cats!!!
