I liked Dunn getting starters minutes and loved how Tyus was playing. But our bench has been less than stellar so getting Ricky back might allow Dunn or Tyus to play a few mins with Ricky and add some depth.

He helps, that's for sure. Good news.

Rubio returning will help the team no doubt. The only question is how do the backup PG minutes get handed out.

Having Ricky back tomorrow would be a boost for the team and the crowd tomorrow, and we'll probably need both to beat the Clips.
My guess is Tyus will be the backup. Thibs is going to play to win, for now. That said, I think and hope Thibs will still find a way to give Dunn some time. Could be wrong though and Dunn will be given the first backup shift, and then maybe Tyus gets the 2nd half if Dunn struggles. Regardless I'm trusting Thibs on this one, overall I have liked his rotations despite the results.
