I'm not sure if it's at the 4 or the 5, but Coach May is going to play his guy and the #9 overall pick in the deepest draft in a long time. I won't make predictions of who's spot he's taking, but he's going to hit the floor running. It's not like we are contenders. Let him grow with Flagg.
Don´t think he´ll start, but he´ll play at least 20 MPG for 82 games, none of this herky jerky rotational mind games BS that Carlisle/Kidd seemed to play with many rookies. You can´t play a rookie 30 MPG for three games/a week, they average 15 PPG, cause the opposition is soft and then DNP them for two months, cause they not ready for the better players. That´s not the way to develop young players imho. You let them swim, sink and swim again or drown. You don´t let them swim and then sit on the beach for months baking in the sun, while the ocean is right there in front of their noses.
