5. Sananda Fru
Sananda Fru might not be the guy who scores a majority of your points, but he’s a necessity to have down the stretch of the game. Fru has been a menace on the offensive boards for the Cardinals. In Louisville’s first game against South Carolina State, Fru had six offensive rebounds. He added four more in their second game against Jackson State. If Fru can continue to get the Cardinals' second opportunities, they’ll have a much better shot to win.
Fru is also a defensive presence for the Cardinals as he averages a block a game already this season. As stated earlier, Fru might not be the No. 1 scorer, but he can for sure contribute. In his first two games, he put up respectable nine and 12-point performances to boost the Cardinals.
Fru can help the Cardinals get extra chances and make sure Kentucky doesn’t. If he can play to the fullest of his ability, Louisville has a real opportunity to take down the No. 9 team.
