6 years agoOne game after returning to a reserve role, rookie small forward/shooting guard Mikal Bridges is back in the starting lineup against the Milwaukee Bucks. Bridges will start alongside Devin Booker, Trevor Ariza, T.J. Warren, and Deandre Ayton. Therefore, Isaiah Canaan will come off the bench for the second time this season. Coach Igor Kokoskov wasn't happy with the defense in their last outing and Bridges brings both length and defensive intensity. The Villanova product, who shot the ball exceptionally well in his prior three starts, could be in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future. Thus, making him a sensible add in standard leagues.--Daniel Benjamin
