That 4 spot is troubling.
EDIT: I guess Chriss can play some 4, but he can't hit the broad side of a barn from 3, relative to NBA standards. (I know he could outshoot me every day of the week and twice on Sundays.)
Yeah...McLaughlin looked really bad the other night. Totally outmatched to me.

McLaughlin might be able to shoot but he's 23 years old with limited athleticism. If he can't get on the floor with the team missing eight roster players I don't see the point of keeping him in the development program. This is a guy you hope might earn a role as a specialized sharpshooter one day.
The Mavs will be trying to win tonight so I'd expect Brunson, Ntilikina and vet B Knight to get the bulk of the backcourt minutes but I'd like to see what McLaughlin can do with 10-15 minutes.
