PF - Kasean Pryor
Louisville will run a guard-heavy lineup, as the Cardinals will see Brown, Wooley, and Conwell start. This means Kelsey needs a forward who can space out the floor and shoot. Well, they have the perfect player, and that is Kasean Pryor. The returning Cardinal played just seven games last season, and he tore his ACL, sidelining him for the remainder of the season.
Pryor is the perfect piece to start next to the Cardinals' guards as he has the ability to splash it from beyond the arc and knock midrange shots down. He is also an elite dunker and rim protector. The 6-foot-10 power forward averaged 13.0 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 0.7 blocks while shooting 44.7 percent from the field and 35.2 percent from downtown in his last full season.
