We could be one injury away from a full on tank job, but I'm definitely looking forward to see who steps up with the opportunity. The potential of Pritchard taking another step forward is particularly interesting to me.  I think we may have seen peak Pritchard last season, but I will never underestimate that guy.

I'd love to see the team play well enough to make a Tatum return a tough decision (if he's proven healthy)
Yup

Best case scenario in terms of how well individual players and the team perform would be that Simons matures into a rounded player who can score 20 pts, Garza shows he can be a legit bench big, and Amari Williams plays well enough to earn meaningful minutes.  I guess you could add in Queta although I feel like I have seen enough of him to know what he is.  Brown, White, Hauser, Pritchard kind of are what they are.  Walsh, and the other young players are probably not going to produce any surprises.

Even with Simons, Garza, Williams, and even Queta being surprisingly good, I don't have high expectations for team success (wins).
