3 years agoSacramento Kings power forward Chimezie Metu has been elevated to the starting five for Friday's game against the Thunder, which will mark his first start of the season. Metu is taking over the starting PF role from Maurice Harkless for the time being, despite the fourth-year big man having averaged just 14 minutes per game across his first three appearances. With so many mouths to feed on the Sacramento offense, Metu can be viewed as a rebound-first option; he has snagged six boards in each of his last two games. While it's too early to deem him a short-term stream play, he's a name to keep an eye on moving forward.--Jesse Borek
