Seton Hall Basketball: 2023-24 season preview for the Pirates
By John Makuch
Projected starting lineup
G- Al-Amir Dawes
Dawes enters his second season with the Pirates after transferring in from Clemson the year prior. He emerged as a clutch performer and solid scorer, putting up 12.6 points per game as one of the lead point guards as a transfer for this team. The Newark native will look to continue to light up Prudential Center with his shooting ability and put in another strong season.
G- Kadary Richmond
Richmond is looked at as the player with the most NBA potential on this Seton Hall team, mostly because of how well-rounded he is offensively in addition to his defensive prowess. After putting up 10.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game performance last season, he will look to bring those numbers up even more with a potentially bigger role.
G- Dylan Addae-Wusu
Seton Hall needed some additional guard depth heading into this season, and Coach Holloway got exactly that with Addae-Wusu. The 6’4 transfer from St. Johns put together 9.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game last season in his strongest scoring season yet. He should be a consistent starter who could capitalize off a big-time team need.
F- Dre Davis
Davis battled through some injuries last season, but this is a year where he will look to put together a complete campaign for this program. He put up 9.6 points per game when he was out there, and was a great spark plug off the bench. Now, he will be put in that starting role he was expected to be in when he arrived at this program, and the sky is the limit for the senior from Indianapolis
C- Jaden Bediako
Seton Hall and their loss of Tyrese Samuel had this program wondering who would be the big man in South Orange, and Bediako appears to be the answer. The graduate transfer from Santa Clara put up 6.0 points and 4.9 rebounds per game this past season, but will now get the chance to improve on that as the lead center for the Pirates. Seton Hall will need consistency out of him, but they have some additional depth when he cannot be on the floor.
