Couple things regarding your post:
1. Believe me or not (I don't care) I do have connections w/ players and personnel as mentioned before. I spoke with Josh late at night at a friend's event (he is currently in LA right now) and he said Phx offered a good contract and ample playing-time. Did not specify starting role and that is not expected since Hill and Rich are glued to that role.
2. Regarding the roster, Lopez is definitely a starter. Turkoglu is essentially being brought in as either a small forward or power forward. If they play Turkoglu at small forward, look for Dudley to be traded away. There are only 3 possible scenarios:
A. Roster With Hedo As Power Forward:
Most Likely Scenario As Of Right Now.
G Nash, Dragic
G Richardson, Childress
F Hill, Dudley
F Turkoglu, Warrick
C Lopez, Frye
11th Clark
12th Lawal
13th Additional Free Agent
B. Roster With Hedo As Small Forward:
Least Likely Scenario Since Childress Was Signed To Play Significant Role, Not 11th Man.
G Nash, Dragic
G Richardson, Dudley
F Turkoglu, Hill
F Warrick, Additional Free Agent
C Lopez, Frye
11th Childress
12th Clark
13th Lawal
C. Roster With Hedo As Small Forward With Dudley Trade:
Possible Scenario If They Find Jared Dudley Trade Partner.
G Nash, Dragic
G Richardson, Childress
F Turkoglu, Hill
F Warrick, Via-Trade
C Lopez, Frye
11th Clark
12th Lawal
13th Additional Free Agent
