How the USC men’s basketball roster shapes up for the 2016-17 season

How the USC Trojans will look next college basketball season:

Player; Pos.; Ht.; Yr.: Comment

Shaqquan Aaron; G; 6-7; So.: Former highly rated high school recruit sat out this season after transferring from Louisville.

Bennie Boatwright; F; 6-10; So. :USC’s only freshman starter averaged 11.5 points and 5.2 rebounds per game.

Darion Clark; F; 6-7; Sr.: USC went 19-7 when Clark was healthy and in the lineup. It went 2-5 when he wasn’t.

Samer Dhillon; F; 6-8; Sr.: Walk-on and team’s resident entrepreneur appeared in six games.

Harrison Henderson; F; 6-10; Fr.: Fits USC’s system as an athletic forward who is raw but has lots of potential.

Julian Jacobs; G; 6-4; Sr.; A steady performer and leader, Jacobs averaged 11.6 points but never scored 20 in a game.

Nikola Jovanovic; F; 6-11; Sr.: Rarely flashy but led the team in rebounds, with seven per game, and was second in scoring, at 12.1.

Kurt Karis; G; 6-1; Sr.: Walk-on transferred from Chicago State and will have two seasons of eligibility remaining.

Malik Marquetti; G; 6-6; Jr.: Averaged 7.3 minutes but will have to fend off newcomers to stay in the rotation.

Malik Martin; F; 6-11; Jr.: Assumed some of the minutes made available by Clark’s injuries, averaging 1.8 points and 1.5 rebounds in 6.6 minutes.

Jonah Mathews; G; 6-3; Fr.: Rated the No. 1 shooting guard recruit in his class by Scout.com.

Jordan McLaughlin; G; 6-1; Jr.: Paired with Jacobs to form one of the nation’s best point-guard duos and led the team in scoring.

De’Anthony Melton; G; 6-3; Fr.: Coach Andy Enfield described Melton as an all-around player who is “an elite defender.”

Chimezie Metu; F; 6-11; So.: Superior athlete had twice as many blocks as any other Trojan and led the team in dunks by a wide margin, but is still raw.

Katin Reinhardt; G; 6-6; Jr.: Once a chucker, Reinhardt learned to play within a system and developed into a capable defender.

Elijah Stewart; G; 6-5; Jr.: Three-point leader among players with 20 or more attempts. Cycled in and out of the starting lineup with Reinhardt.
