Talking about Wiggins and Brewer... What's the starting lineup on Wednesday?

Zgoda said both Wiggins and Shabazz were back at practice and ready to go. Wiggins has started every game he played in the preseason, but then again, so did Brewer. Flip's early comments about wanting to have a mix of vets and youth would suggest Wiggins gets the start.

And who are your two guys in suits on Wednesday? GR3 is the easy choice. I suppose the other one will be Hummel.

After watching most of the pre season, I could see the following..

Wiggins/young/pek/rubio/martin will be the starters.

brew/AB/dieng/mo/bud are going to be the 2nd unit. Lavine will get an opportunity if the rotation wings are not playing well.

Bazz and turiaf will be in uniform but will collect dnp-cd's Hummel and GR3 will be in suits and robinson will spend some time in the d league.

I see rubio taking a step forward. He shot really well from the mid range elbow the last 2 pre season games. If he continues to hit that consistently, thats going to help his overall game. Teams play him for the pass when he drives or in pick and rolls. If he can hit that elbow mid range shot then he will be much deadlier in pick and rolls as defenders will have to stay close to him and he will have a lot more options with the ball.
