Wes Harris or Esa Ahmad? At 6'7", with a 7' wingspan, I presume that's too tall of a task for Jevon or Dax. Jevon will be busy with Brunson, and Dax will check Booth, which works heavily in our favor. I'm pretty happy with Jevon and Dax's matchups.
It's Bridges and DiVencenzo, when checks into the game, who worry me.
I would feel much, much better with big Wes on Bridges than Esa. But, with the way Villanova screens, we'll end up with mismatches here and there, presuming we're switching on those screens. Bridges has been on a tear lately. It's OK if he hits an occasional three-pointer here and there. But, if and when he starts getting to the rim, and if they are calling the game tight - getting our guys in foul trouble...that's when we're in some hot water.
This is the key matchup tomorrow, in my opinion. And, there probably will be a few times when Teddy Allen will be on Bridges, which could mean some foul trouble for Teddy. We need the same Teddy Allen we've been seeing lately tomorrow night. All hands on deck.
