Hopefully Hammond and Jones return, but we will still need (at a minimum)
- A backup PG, preferably a combo guard who could play with Hammond on occasion
- A starting ACC-level wing who can shoot and score (this will not necessarily be easy to find without significant resources)
- A starting C
- A rotational 3/4 that can play 8-12 mpg
That leaves a rotation of the four players to be named later listed above to add to Hammond, Johnson, Jones, and Hansberry. Perhaps Davis will be able to play in a pinch if he stays on board.
I know CMY said he may grab a late HS kid if necessary and it seems like it may be necessary.

Along with Amani Hansberry, VT announced Tyler Johnson is back.

If Hammond comes back they will probably have the most returning starters
