Yeep. Beal can play some PG. He was a PG younger in life. Not anything he should do a lot of but he can give them a few minute there or even as the SG he can having the ball in hand to get the offense in gear.

I expect to see some of this. Between Crawford and Beal, they can cover most the back up PG minutes. They just need a back up PG to handle about 10 minutes a game.

32 Wall. with 16 minutes left to get split up.

They can let Mack go and upgrade the back up anyway though. The need a little more depth there.

Wall is averaging 37mpg, not sure why he'd drop to 32mpg all of a sudden.

John Wall is going to continue to get his minutes, and it's part of the reason why I'm not too concerned about the backup position.

Sure, having somebody a bit more experienced would be nice, but let's not kid ourselves, whoever plays behind Wall isn't going to see much time on the floor.

Now that the Bucks have Henson, I wonder what Sanders' role will be? His minutes won't be there IMO.

More than a few guys here had Tobias Harris on their draft board for the Mack pick, he was one of the biggest droppers on draft-night because he came-out too-early.
You can't help but wonder how-much better the Wizards would be right now if someone else's where drafting for them.

You must mean Singleton instead of Mack, since Harris was the 19th pick - 1 after Singleton - and Mack was a 2nd round pick.

He'll be competing with Udoh for minor minutes, and Udoh will likely beat him out. Remember, the Bucks didn't just add Henson, they added Dalembert - and Sanders was playing mostly center last season. They still have Gooden and Ilyasova. And a Moute can play PF.

yeah. I guess 32 min may be a little low. I want him rested for the final push into the playoffs. That going to take limiting his time some down from 36-37 to say 32-34

If they can do that will depend on a lot of things. Partly what they can get at back up. Party how good Wall plays ( think he has a really good year ) Partly how good the supporting case is.

if wall only plays 32 a game with the current guard prospects, we won't have to worry about a playoff push.

impromptu formula - wall's mpg + 7 = wins prediction.
