GAME 14: DAL (9-5) @ PHX (11-3) | 98-105 loss

[Chicagojk]

My guess is that the plan for non-Brunson minutes will start with Ntilikina and either KP or Boban. We'll see how that works. Burke might be somewhere on the list of fallback options, too, and if he can't step up at times like this, then he truly is a worthless use of a roster spot. But, maybe he can!

I agree - fascinating.

Games like today is why they kept Burke around.    If he doesn't play well the next few games or isn't used, I would cut bait.   I mean you aren't going to get a team to take him, I don't think.   

So if he cannot play in a game like tonight, I would just move on.   

I would expect expanded minutes for Frank tonight but I am not sure if getting the team in sets is a strong point for him.   It wouldn't surprise me to see Sterling Brown take some responsibility.  Breakout game for Brown?  Maybe 3 points for him?
