At this point, Granger off the bench, even he can even be that healthy. His minutes are going to have to be low.

Otherwise, same starting 5 as all year.

Hill/Stephenson/George/West/Hibbert
Off the bench: Augustin/OJ/Granger/Hansbrough/Mahinmi
Young and Pendergraph will be active throughout the rest of the year. Green is borderline. Plumlee is behind.

Id say the best thing to do,is keep the same starting 5 together,we need scoring off the bench,so at this point Granger fits in better by coming off the bench.

Granger has usually been a slow starter to most seasons, so I sincerely doubt he'll be implemented into the starting 5 this season even if he's 100%

It has to be Hill/Stephenson/George/Hibbert and West like it has been all season. There is no sense in disrupting the chemistry they have built over the first 60 games of the season.

Hopefully Granger can get healthy enough to be able to play at least 12 mpg off the bench. If he can do that, then he can back up George. Anything above 12 mpg is icing on the cake.
