Day 1 Starting Lineup/depth chart as of right now? I can’t figure it out

[Roy_McAvoy]

I go round and round with who I think the Jazz would start day 1 right now. Here’s my best guess. I’m sure it’s wrong. What do you guys think?
(I get that this is putting players in a box & that they will move around, but this is guessing the majority minutes positions.)

C) Walker Kessler, Kyle Filipowski, Jusif Nurkic
F) John Collins, Taylor Hendricks
F) Lauri Markkanen, Brice Sensabaugh, Johnny Juzang, Cody Williams
G) Ace Bailey, Keyonte George,
G) Isaiah Collier, Walter Clayton

I don't personally think it's worth thinking about right now. There are going to be more roster changes.

 

[The Midnight]

Need to wait for the Summer League games.

I think you can pencil in Collier, Lauri, Walker and Collins.. they all have earned the right to start after what went down last season.

I think we'll go to extreme depths to move Collins off the roster. Not a guarantee of course but the Sexton move clearly signals we want to be really young and really bad this year. Barring the chance to get true move-the-needle type players.

I don't think so with Collins. Hendricks started over him last season. If Collins is still on the roster, why wouldn't that happen again this year?

Seniority.

But Collins is owe $26m.. that's gonna be tough to move.

100%. Just hoping there's the right # / $ of crappy contracts on a team that's looking to win and thinks JC will help. We'll see I suppose.

Seniority.

Ah, so last season Hendricks had more seniority than Collins.
I agree that Collins would start though

Well we’re talking about the start of the season here..

Why is this season different from last season though?
