I think Bruce Brown will be the backup point guard, just as he was during the championship season. Micic has underperformed so far and appears a tad bit slow. Brown looked better as a point in Denver.
There is a roster spot available, so anything is possible.
It is just MY speculation but it has a lot of reasonability to make this assumption. He and Jokic have a good friendship (good replacement for Cancar), strong history with the Serbian Nat'l team and he's experienced, a better ball-handler than Brown but not as good of a shooter as of late. Also, as you noted, we do have the roster spot.
On another noteof speculation, I really don't see Hunter Tyson lasting beyond this season. He hasn't shown any growth in SL, can't expect that in the real world.
