This gets closer to the real answer...

The scoring load will be shifted. Guards and wings can score more, there could be a more even distribution among post scoring, the bench could (and should) be more involved. But they'll also defend better with a fully healthy roster, and you dont have to fully replace 1:1 scoring, you just need to score more than your opponents. If VT defends better and scores a little less, they should still do better.

Replacing Basile / Mutts points and rebounds
1980VT • 04/27/23 12:36 PM ET
Five guys on this team could average double figure points
Squatro • 04/28/23 08:49 PM ET
Would love to see Poteat make significant strides
Pylons • 04/29/23 09:38 AM ET
Hopefully our wings aren't seemingly afraid to take 3s next season
The_Phew • 04/28/23 01:04 PM ET
Teams played us from the outside first last year on Cattoor and Maddox

Having a weak shooter on the wing

Collins was finding his range until he broke his nose...

We probably got 5 PPG from the 3 last season. **
YBYSAIAHokie • 04/28/23 04:15 PM ET
I like the recipe **
VaTechHokiesACC • 04/28/23 02:50 PM ET
Half of those 30 points may come from Cattoor and Rice. Kidd is a point
VT One • 04/28/23 10:15 AM ET
I am not that concerned about replacing the RB, I think Long and Beran will
vtox1 • 04/27/23 10:04 PM ET
Hopefully we don’t replace Mutt’s turnovers **
HokieHoopzThe2nd • 04/27/23 05:46 PM ET
You do realize that Mutts averaged more assists than Shawn Pedulla and had
HeisenBurg13 • 04/28/23 07:17 AM ET
Assists are passes that lead directly to a score, Pedulla's role ...
1980VT • 04/28/23 10:00 AM ET
Pedulla wasn’t all that great either. Agree to disagree.
HokieHoopzThe2nd • 04/28/23 09:08 AM ET
While true, the turnovers only tell part of the story. We were 10x better
goodbadugly • 04/28/23 10:17 AM ET
I'd expect Long/Beran to have fewer tpg than Mutts/Basile. Question is can

Last time VT lost their 2 main bigs...

losing Horne and Ojiako vs. losing Basile and Mutts
Pylons • 04/28/23 10:43 AM ET
True. Our front court players are going to do more of

5 spot. Can Beran average 10-12ppg? With 6-8ppg with Kidd & Poteat?**
1980VT • 04/27/23 02:41 PM ET
If he can’t then why did Mike recruit him?
tallahasseehokie • 04/28/23 04:43 PM ET
Yes.**
NC Hoke • 04/28/23 02:37 PM ET
I predict Kidd will average ~10ppg off the bench. His offense is
goodbadugly • 04/27/23 02:53 PM ET
10 would be great, but foul trouble will more than likely lower minutes
1980VT • 04/27/23 03:31 PM ET
Also, defense.
