I hope he’ll grab the 3 position by the throat.
Yeah, while I am sure Whitehead can defend most smallball college PFs, I would expect the team to see their rebounding suffer with him there. And as you note, there is already a ready-made option for backup PF: Mitchell, who would be then moving to his natural position.
