Mo Diawara will start the season in the rotation This isn’t set in stone. It’s just my gut feeling. If Brown is going to play 10 players every night, we know the starters will make up the first five. We can confidently pencil in Landry Shamet, Miles “Deuce” McBride, Andre Drummond and Jose Alvarado behind them. To me, the 10th spot comes down to Jordan Clarkson and Diawara. Clarkson feels like a “break glass in case of emergency” option this season. He’s a pro’s pro, and I don’t worry about h...

Miller had 26 points and 7 boards on 11-of-14 shooting against Denver, including 4-of-6 from three. SI notes that he already seems to be getting the nod ahead of Patrick Williams in Splitter’s rotation.
