In Reply to: Hoping Freeney will be back this season. He really seemed… posted by Fuzzy on October 14, 2026 at 07:05:02
I thought Free really brought that toughness and physicality to our backcourt at the end of last season, and I expected him to play a significant role this year.
Unfortunately, my gut tells me this might be less about an injury and more about playing time being the reason for his sudden departure. With Kusturica now in the fold, my guess is that Free realized he was further down the depth chart than he anticipated.
I hope I'm completely wrong on this one, but Cronin has been unusually quiet about him whenever the opportunity has come up. If I'm right, which I hope I'm not, we may have seen the last of Freeny in a Bruin uniform.
