For now, the starters are set as the Bulls began a four-day stretch of practice before Thursday's season opener in Toronto. Jerian Grant, Justin Holiday, Paul Zipser, Nikola Mirotic and Robin Lopez will get the nod, provided Zipser's sore back, which he tested on Sunday, cooperates.
With Kris Dunn out, Ryan Arcidiacono projects to be the backup point guard in the 10-man rotation along with David Nwaba, Denzel Valentine and two of three from the big-man possibilities of Bobby Portis, Lauri Markkanen and Cristiano Felicio.
The big-man rotation projects to be the most fluid and based on matchups. Portis is a former first-round pick. Markkanen is the highly valued lottery pick. Felicio signed a four-year, $32 million deal in the offseason.
"The traditional big, there's not a lot of them anymore," Hoiberg said. "So you can get away with playing smaller guys, more skilled lineups. Bobby's an excellent screener, a very good rim roller and runs the floor as well as any big we have. There will be times we play five skilled guys.
