Everything’s peachy for the Wildcats right now. Coming off a massive win over Wisconsin, Northwestern is poised to finish with its best record in program history. And yet, there’s a lingering issue on the team that needs to be resolved sooner rather than later.
The team’s greatest strength has been its versatility on the wing. Vic Law and Scottie Lindsey have proven to be one of the most potent wing duos in the Big Ten. Sanjay Lumpkin gives up a few inches every night, but is still a capable power forward and much more than capable defensively. The Wildcats’ quickness on the perimeter helps them on both ends of the floor; it allows them to switch defensively and spread opposing teams out offensively.
