per the STrib:
In the meantime, here's what the Gophers are hoping Santa Claus left them ...
Some power forward depth. OK, so the fat man probably didn't drop a brawny, imposing big man on the steps of Williams Arena, seeing as how it'd be against NCAA rules to put another guy on scholarship anyway -- but the Gophers would love to see improvement from every player they do have in the rotation. Joey King is playing about as well as he's capable of, and that's huge. But Charles Buggs needs to improve defensively, Bakary Konate (who is really a center but will be used at the 4 at times) needs to get better with his hands. International newbie Gaston Diedhiou has to get much, much better all-around before he even steps on the court, but boy could coach Richard Pitino use him.
