Starters
Dotson - Clear PG1. Tyshawn too old.
MG -B est defender in the tournament probably.
Wayne or Keith - Do you go younger guy with NBA experience or ultra-experienced guy who just retired from Euro ball? Keith better scorer but Wayne probably better overall player.
TRob - Athletic machine still, I think. Most important player on this team. If he's on, they're tough to beat. If he's not, they may struggle a bit.
Dedric - Can be a 4 or 5 and score from either spot.

First off the bench
Tyshawn. Still good.
Vick. Younger guy so he's got some energy which is important. He's been really good overseas.
Wayne or Keith

Backups to the backups
Mitch. May play more than expected for size.
Little. Older and just not very good.
Jamari. Break in case of emergency.

It might be one of the best teams on paper in the entire tournament. Much better than what they brought to the table a few years ago.

Morrii are both NBA players, so they're ineligible.

Could really use Withey. Good defensive guards, but that front court is probably the worst two defensive bigs we've had under Self

From what I recall, the TBT tournament is very guard focused. Lots of 4 out 1 in type of play. Kind of pickup ball-ish type of play.

I think Little was the best player last time around.

And this seems like the kinda thing Vick could light up. He’s almost a rich man’s Little, but for the in between the ears stuff)

He’s athletic as eff, can shoot, and in his prime coming off a Mexican national championship.

You get noncon Vick and he could be TBT MVP

(Or you get Laura Bauer Vick and you might be better off just playing old ass Little)

Tho, for what it’s worth, Dedric Vick Marcus Dot is like 4/5 of the starters from that 19 team

Little was easily the best player last time around

Tyshawn was pretty awful last time around from what I remember. A lot of these other guards are big physical grown ass men who've been playing pro basketball overseas, and they were just too physical for him. So I don't expect much from him
