Also 3 years ago vs Auburn at Barclays their big center got Grant and Grace in immediate foul trouble. Tyler had to defend the center position at that point and also picked up 3 first half fouls.
It’s not that you need another true center but not only are we talking about the 3rd option being guys only 6’5/6’6” but guys who have zero bulk.
Injuries happen, fouls happen and Walz is completely unproven on the court as yet. I hope he’s ready if needed to play 25-30m but I’m not confident in it yet. The non-Quinn lineup scenarios if one injury happens are dicey.
