PREVIEW: Is the new look UCF Men's basketball ready for the Big XII?

[ucf1]

UCF Men's basketball season is just around the corner, and this years version of the Knights squad features 11 new faces, including F Dior Johnson and G Mikey Williams.

Combined with returning players G Darius Johnson and F Jaylin Sellers, coach Johnny Dawkins hopes this team can compete in a loaded Big 12 conference.

More here from Andrew Cherico for the Sons of UCF.

Backcourt has as much quality depth as the program has ever had with Da. Johnson, Ivy-Curry, M. Williams, and Di. Johnson. I’m thinking we will see a lot of two PG/lead guard lineups alongside Sellers and Hall (and Deebo Coleman).

But I could also see big man depth becoming an issue, especially as UCF gets into league play.
