So I was looking at the roster and saw two players that I never heard previously mentioned. One is Deion Lavender, who looks like a graduate transfer from UAB (he also previously played at SIU). The other is Langston Stalling, a Freshman guard from Gary. I may have missed previous posts on these two players, but what role are these two guys expected to play?
You missed a thread or two somewhere along the line me thinks.

I'll catch you up. Lavender is a grad transfer and is here to shore up the guard situation given two expected key contributors are only freshman. He fills a roster spot which was available and will be the only senior on the team so his spot remains available for a 2019 recruit. Stallings is on a full ride academic scholarship (valedictorian of his class) and, as it turns out, is a very good basketball player. Will be a good practice guy who might contribute from time to time, who knows.
Thank you. Indeed, I did miss a thread or two somewhere.
