Louisville basketball’s season is fast approaching, and Cardinals fans have just gotten a brief glimpse of what is to come. Pat Kelsey made major moves this offseason, including adding 5-star transfer Florida player Flory Bidunga. All offseason, Louisville and Bidunga have heard Bidunga isn’t a major offensive threat, but a recent video might say otherwise.
Cardinals fans saw a recent video of Bidunga in which the 6-foot-9 center made a filthy crossover at the top of the key, then took one dribble and rose for a monster slam. While it is only from practice, this video shows the center is already developing a deeper offensive game under Kelsey, and that’s exactly what Louisville needs from Bidunga.

ACC Power Rankings: Louisville rises after huge win over FSU
Louisville is coming off a dominant win over Florida State, which has pushed the Cardinals up in our weekly power rankings. After the Cardinals dropped two straight, Louisville fell to No. 11 in these power rankings, but with Friday’s win, there is that spark again, as Isaac Brown said.
There is no debate that Miami is at the top of the rankings, and right now, Wake Forest looks like its biggest threat. But Louisville got exactly what it needed this past weekend: chaos. Duke, Pitt, and Virginia Tech all lost, which not only helped Louisville rise in these rankings, but also gave the Cardinals a small boost toward possibly making the ACC Championship Game.
We have Louisville ranked No. 7, but with two relatively easy wins coming up, the Cardinals have a chance to make a statement in this conference.

Ryan Conwell drops 22 points in NBA preseason game

The former Cardinal showed he can score at a high level while also showcasing his playmaking, nearly putting together a double-double with nine assists. Conwell has a real chance to earn valuable bench minutes this upcoming season, and this eye-popping performance was a huge step in the right direction for the rookie.
