At this point, could it be any worse than what we've seen?

Lineup 2

Elliot Cadeau
Drake Powell
Jae'Lyn Withers
Cade Tyson
Jalen Washington

Reasoning: This lineup gives the Tar Heels a lot more size but a ton of question marks as well.

Let's face it: Cade Tyson hasn't panned out. However, for the sake of this, let's just stick him in and see if he can somehow, someway remember how to shoot the basketball at a high level (heck, we'd settle for average given what he's provided).

Withers and Powell feature a ton of athleticism, allowing them to guard multiple positions if needed. If Cadeau can make smart decisions with the basketball, this lineup can space the floor a bit to help give him more space to drive to the basket.

While it's a huge risk, why not give it some burn and see what happens?
