Agree BC  Note that Brink last season was listed as a Forward.  And introduced as a Forward.

Based on what Cam and her mom told us at the Awards Luncheon, Tara is putting her at power forward (not post) which means someone else will be in the middle.  Who that is?  Can only guess.

My guess is there's more than one - Belibi, Iriafen, and Betts all have more limited offensive range than Brink, so any of them would be a logical 5 to her 4 on offense, since she can step back and shoot the three. 

To me the important wild card here is Demetre, since she and Jump are our two best hopes for regular outside shooting. In theory we could have a lineup of Jones, Jump, Demetre, Brink, Belibi/Betts/Iriafen, which would presumably give us an edge on size over just about any team in the country, but that lineup would suffer from turnover issues and also issues covering speedy guards on defense. 

I'll admit that for all the terrific players we have this coming season, this is one of the more puzzling set of players to work with of any year I can remember. Can't wait to see how Tara the Chess Master figures out how to use all her pieces.
