There’s no way he’s playing anytime soon. It could be awkward for the locker room with Giddey right now or taking questions from the press until this is all sorted out, which could be awhile from now after they do investigations. OKC are on fire, currently the 2nd seed in the West. Giddey being around might switch focuses atm.
So who is starting now?
My pick is Kenrich, we won’t be having 3 playmakers on the court, but we will impove on defense, rebounding and spacing. He doesn’t need to play 30 minutes though obviously, Micic, Joe, Cason, Dieng will all get more minutes.
This is the answer. Start Kenrich, play Cason and Joe more minutes. Closing depends on the situation
