  • Powell played with the second unit early, ahead of Danny Wolf and Josh Minott, but played only 10 minutes. The main rotation was the starters plus Traore, Clowney, Johnson and Wagner off the bench. at 24:28

  • Wolf and Josh Minott didn't come in until the very end of the game. Minott was the last player in and played the fewest minutes on the team, 7. at 25:10

  • Host says Clowney seems to be a lock for the rotation. Chaney Johnson is battling Josh Minott and Wolf for the final forward spot, and right now Johnson seems to have earned it, though the host says we'll see if it sustains. at 26:16
  • Host thinks Chaney Johnson might have the rotation spot to start the year, but his leash might be short as a two-way player, with Josh Minott and Wolf, both of whom have looked good in limited preseason minutes, nipping at his heels. at 28:48
