With Jizzle James being dismissed from the Cincinnati Bearcats basketball roster, a hole has been created in the rotation, which will allow multiple players to expand their roles for the upcoming season. Below are the top three candidates to grow into a larger role.
Day Day Thomas
Day Day Thomas has been in Jizzle James' shadow the past two seasons, but has been better in his own ways. In his two seasons as a Bearcat, Thomas averages 10.3 points, 3.0 assists, and 2.5 rebounds. Thomas isn't the facilitator that James is, but he makes up for it with his defensive intensity and selfless offensive playstyle.
