On Saturday morning, via its social media, Syracuse basketball announced that its two captains for the upcoming 2025-26 season will be junior point guard Naithan George and senior shooting guard J.J. Starling. A huge congrats to them!
It also got me thinking: If the Orange backcourt plays to its collective potential, this group of guards could be among the best in the country. Like top-five good.
Love this. A huge congrats to JJ and Nait. Syracuse will have a top-5 backcourt this season. 🧡 https://t.co/LIL0cAgfiQ
It's a bold statement, I know.
