re: NBA Training Camps

We know that BI, Zion and Val or starting.
I don't think anyone knows who the other two starters are just yet, but i'd lean vey heavily towards Devonte starting. They wouldn't have gone after him and given him that contract if they didn't expect him to start. So that leaves a wing position for either Hart, NAW, Naji or Murphy to start at.

If Murphy is a legit defender, then i'd prefer to start him b/c i want him out there shooting with the starters, and there won't be much pressure on him as a starter playing with Zion and BI. Basically just be Lonzo, find an open spot on the court and wait for your wide open 3.

NAW needs to produce this year, and it shouldn't matter if he's starting or coming off the bench b/c the expectation is for him to play heavy minutes and be an integral part of the offense regardless.
And i'd like to see lineups of Kira/NAW/Hart/Naji/Hayes coming off the bench b/c of the energy they all bring, and that is important with your second unit. That 5 man lineup somehow never played a single minute together. You can find combinations of 4 man lineups with those guys, especially ones involving Hart/Hayes/Kira that have great +/- numbers.
That's how you win more games. You have a second unit that brings tons of energy and keeps you in the game for your starters to close it out, and we did that last year minus the closing out part.
