important, too, and likely to start (although I could see other lineups where he comes off the bench). Other than that, it's all up for grabs. Catchings may well start, but I can easily see him starting the year coming off the bench. Nell will also get big minutes, maybe off the bench, but he's a very good player for us and is probably our best shooter. I think Keita starts, but Fouss might just win that battle. Either way, both centers play big minutes. Mag could start, but I can also easily see him coming off the bench to wreak havoc on the defensive end.

Baker - who knows. Word has been, and continues to be, that he's very skilled. Assuming his foot is good-to-go (he says he's ready), he's likely to see significant playing time. Whether starting or off the bench, who knows.

We have a lot of guys who likely will deserve playing time. Where Koz and Crawford end up in the pecking order is TBD, but I can't imagine either of them starting. But if they win a starting spot, more power to them.

Gonna be a fun year, and the early season will be very interesting to see how the rotation shakes out.

But there's no way Hall doesn't start.
