Position Battles
With the start of fall practice just a few weeks away, here is a look at some of the key position battles that will be taking place during UNO’s preseason camp.
At the point guard position, junior college transfer Malik Smith is expected to compete with incumbent starter Trayvon Palmer for the starting job. Smith is a good shooter and has the ability to penetrate and create for others, while Palmer is a solid defender and an improving shooter. The winner of this battle will likely be determined by who can most effectively run UNO’s offense.
The shooting guard position is wide open following the departure of All-American Doug Brooks. Senior Keelan Garrett and Junior College transfer Dante Harrell are expected to compete for the starting job, with both players bringing different skill sets to the table. Garrett is a streaky shooter who can get hot from beyond the arc, while Harrell is more of a slasher who can also create for his teammates.
At small forward UNO will look to replace All-American Paul George with a committee of players. Senior Mark Dickel and Junior College transfer Xavier Sneed are expected to see time at the 3, with Dickel being more of a perimeter shooter and Sneed being more adept at attacking the basket. Additionally, freshman wings Derrick Griffin and Jordan Talley will also be in the mix for playing time
The Power Forward Position is also up for grabs following the departure of All-American Anthony Davis Junior Nate Frye and sophomoretransfer Johnta Hebron are expected to compete for the starting job, with both players bringing different strengths to the table. Frye is a physical presence who can score in the post, while Hebron is more of an athletic player who can stretch defenses with his shooting ability.
Finally, at center, juniorcollege transfer Isaiah Johnson is expected to compete with incumbent starter Kevin Harmse for minutes. Johnson is a physical presence who can score in the post and rebound at a high level, while Harmse is more of an enigmatic player whose impact on the game often depends on his energy level. The winner of this battle will likely come down to who can provide UNO with the most consistent production down low.
The Bottom Line
With the finalization of the recruiting class and the recent commitment of graduate transfer Matt Coleman the 2018-19 Uno Basketball Roster is now set. Here’s a look at who you can expect to see on the court for the Privateers this upcoming season

In the frontcourt, Uno will have a bit more size and experience, led by 6’8″ forward Ivory White, who averaged nearly nine points and six rebounds per game last season. He’ll be joined by forwards/centers Travin Thibodeaux and Samir Sehic, as well as forward Bryce Washington, who missed all of last season with an injury.
