There's a lot of young talent on this team.  But the key word is young.  The departure of 4 starters is going to be impossible to overcome.  Team offense and defense are going to both be a struggle.  So this may end up being Haase's worst team record-wise.

Defense, in particular, with the loss of Davis and Wills, will really struggle.  The O might not fall much, if at all, even with the departure of Oscar.  But yes, losing Davis, Wills - defensive studs - Da Silva (team MVP), and a first round NBA pick (even if he underperformed at Stanford) is pretty staggering to think about.  Like others, I'm hoping (i) improvement by returnees, (ii) contributions by newcomers, and (iii) better team chemistry make up for the departures.

But it will be difficult.  For sure.
