This is a very talented team, top to bottom. Arguably better than the team that made the historic Elite Eight run last year. Canes have so many players that get their shot and create (Roberts, Williams, Dwyer, Hylton, and Spearman).

Rebounding also seems to be a group effort with five players with four or more against JU.
This team will be a force in the ACC this season.
