In preseason matches, players very rarely play for more than 25 minutes because coaches want their rosters well rested for the regular season.However, with only 11 of the 20 players available to play, Dwane Casey will have no choice but to play his players for as long as possible without exhausting them completely. He will most likely play Cory Joseph as the point guard and Josh Jackson as the shooting guard. Saddiq Bey, Jerami Grant and Luka Garza are our predictions for the frontcourt.
