Yeah, I hear what you are saying. It really does appear that our biggest hope for a Klay like impact in the class next year is Brock Motum. He's the small/power forward out of Australia. Apparently he's long and can hit out to three point land. No word on whether he can bang inside or if he can play TB style defense. Hopefully he's the guy that can take minutes up front immediately and give us some offense.
The other guy is Xavier Thames who is a highly regarded point guard. I'm not optimistic that he's going to be a huge offensive option for us. Word is he needs to continue to refine his jumper and finishing. He's not Marcus Capers in terms of offensive deficiency but he's not going to be Klay next year.
My bet is there will be at least one more spot that opens up in the offseason. Let's hope that we can pull off a coup and grab a big-time player in the Spring. What would you rather have....a sweet shooting two guard or point guard or a post presence that can score inside?
