D.J. Augustin Plays Well As Starter Monday Night
6 years agoOrlando Magic point guard D.J. Augustin got the first look as the starting point guard in Monday night's preseason opener against the Philadelphia 76ers. Orlando brought in point guard Jerian Grant, but it was Augustin who got the first crack as the starter and did not disappoint. Augustin posted 12 points, six assists and three three-pointers in 21 minutes compared to Grant's five points and one assist in 18 minutes. This is a small sample size, but it's shaping up with Augustin being the opening night starter. Augustin will have more short-term value while Grant is a long-term sleeper.
