I'm not sure Precious is in the rotation when Mitch is healthy. I think Thibs prefers a 9-man that features 4 guys that could each come in for someone different. So a PG, 2 wings, and a big.

Look at last year for example in January: Hart, Precious, Grimes, and Deuce.

And in April: Mitch, Bogie, Burks, and Deuce.

Never 2 bigs unless that's all he had available.

Perhaps it may depend on matchups.

There’s a good chance we see Mitch starting. That would mean Deuce, Payne, Hart, and Precious off the bench.

It's been 6 weeks and his initial prognosis was 2-4 weeks

It was a typo. It was supposed to be 2+4 weeks.

Yeah. Something isn't making sense but, I would rather not flirt with a nagging hamstring with Thibs as the HC though so, yeah.

It is quite unfortunate because without Mitch he provides what we need most more than any active person on the roster right now.

I don't think so. But he will most certainly get minumum 20+ minutes a game when the conditioning is fully back.
