Knowing nothing about anything, the most likely candidate is Shamet in our current group. He seems to have intangible qualities like a Fred. Plus, Connor doesn't strike me as a vocal leader or someone who is likely to come along somebody and nurse them along or give support. Just my $0.02. Not a knock on him, but leaders are wired that way generally speaking.
Could be Shaq, though. He does seem to have grown up a bit.
It's an interesting question. Fred has been the leader of this team since Malcolm walked off the court in 2013. Who's next?

Based on his comments this year, I believe Marshall expects Shamet to be the next on court leader.
But if Frankamp takes on some of that role or Shaq (!) does too, so much the better. One of the nice things about the current team is that even though LeFred is THE leader, Baker and Wessel are also commanding enough figures in terms of effort, hustle, and expectations that the Shocks have leadership out the wazoo. With all three of those I just mentioned being seniors, it would be nice to have more than just one guy step up next year. Who knows -- if Peyton Allen can shoot it as well as he's reputed to, and he's a Corps of Cadets type of guy (and I don't know that he is -- but I also don't know that he isn't), maybe he can take on some of that burden, too.
The other key question is not just who will be the leader, but how good a leader will he be? That's the thing about this crew with FVV as El Jefe -- he isn't just a leader; he's an exceptional leader.

Interesting article from Eric Bossi over 10 seniors that we're undervalued by the recruiting service and why.
