Would love to see Gradey go off with a banger, I picked him up on my fantasy team.

I think we lose a close one.

Barnes drops 27 13 and 8, 3 stocks.
IQ goes 5/12 from 3, 9 ast, 24 points and 2 steals.

In today's presser Darko said that RJ practiced today but without contact and is "day-to-day" (and Walter did the same but is about a week behind him in the recover process) and that Kelly didn't practice. I kind of assume that means that neither will be playing on Wednesday.

So my guess would be a starting lineup of Jak-Scottie-Ochai-Gradey-Quickley with Boucher, Davion and Jamal as the main guys off the bench, with maybe a few minutes for Fernando, Mogbo or Battle if necessary.

Give them nothing, but take them of everything.

Mitchell vs Mitchell is a great idea! Allows Gradey to come off the bench and gift Donovan Mitchell with an 'off-night' to start the season :)

No OG means loss.

Will root for a win, though.
