Deserve more playing time than Dillon Hunter? I am ready to see Jones play more and see if his progression can be sped up.

I think he is coming along nicely without question, Hunter has turned into an excellent player now. I just hope they both return next year. I would like Jones to get a little more PT now though.

IMO MORE than Hunter no. More in general yes. Bourret said we have our biggest points advantage over the last 4-5 games when D Hunter is on the floor. He's been awesome and deserves the minutes. He's going to be one of our main guys next year. Del is coming on nicely too.

He has had a few good games, and looked very confident tonight

But Syracuse is not that talented outside of JJ starling. Regardless, he was a great get for Brownell, especially with HUnter and Zachry leaving this year, they have been difference-makers and should be a major factor if we made it deep into the tournament.

Agree, can't base much off from tonight. Cuse is turrible.

Hunter has been consistent this year off the bench, but Jones looked great tonight. I’d still take Dillon over Jones, but Del took a huge step forward tonight. Future of Basketball looks better than expected.

Del brings an energy when he comes in. Helps on each end of the floor. Fun to watch. He will be big for us as he develops

Del is most definitely a better shooter especially at the (ft line) but Dillion is good on both sides of the ball as well, either way glad we have both for good depth.

Dillon plays really good defense and takes care of the ball.

Del is the better offensive player but is more erratic. I don’t think he has earned Brad’s full trust yet.
I think Del’s ceiling is higher than Dillon’s, although Dillon has improved a lot at Clemson.

I think he is still a work in progress.

Right now, I think Dillon has better instincts, defense and moves the ball around well. Del will come along with playing time and could be crucial from the bench for our next tournament run.
