If you want a quick, handy guide to what went wrong with the 2018-19 Vanderbilt basketball team, a quick look at KenPom’s data on the most frequent lineups over the last five games should give you an idea.
Vanderbilt’s most frequent lineup has been Saben Lee at the point, along with Aaron Nesmith, Matt Ryan, Yanni Wetzell, and Simi Shittu. Its second-most frequent lineup replaces Ryan with Joe Toye. (It also, according to KenPom, has Toye at the two and moves Nesmith to the three. His lineup algorithm is a bit complicated, but I suspect it considers Nesmith the three mostly because he’s a better rebounder than Toye.
