LaMarcus Aldridge quietly puts up seven points in 16 minutes

PF, San Antonio Spurs

LaMarcus Aldridge started on Saturday and logged 16 minutes, finishing the game with seven points on 3-of-5 shooting, three rebounds and one block.

It's the preseason and there was clearly no reason to unnecessarily tire out the Spurs' elder statesman. His roto-friendly game, juxtaposed with his high mileage has made him as a quiet value-pick in the early-middle round of standard-league drafts.

LeBron James
SF, Los Angeles Lakers

LeBron James (sore right groin), Anthony Davis, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Danny Green (left volar plate injury) and Dwight Howard have been named as the Lakers starters for Wednesday's Game 1.

James and Green were probable heading into this announcement and there's little surprise that these two vets would be able to take the floor. It's a full-force starting five for L.A. as they hope to secure the initiative in this seven-game series.

Dwight Howard
C, Los Angeles Lakers

Dwight Howard has been selected to start at center for the Lakers in Wednesday's Game 1 vs. the Heat.

The Lakers opt to go big, pairing Howard with Anthony Davis. The duo will be a headache for the Heat to deal with in the paint, but it's a good thing Miami has players who are able to guard multiple positions.

Dwight Howard
C, Los Angeles Lakers

Frank Vogel has yet to name the Lakers' starting center for Wednesday's Game 1 of the NBA Finals vs. the Heat.

The Lakers have had three different starting lineups thus far that all include LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Danny Green and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Dwight Howard got the last two starts against the Nuggets while Markieff Morris was inserted for the final two games vs. the Rockets and JaVale McGee logged the other 11. Seeing as though McGee has started in every Game 1 so far, it puts him as the frontrunner to get the nod on Wednesday. However, it wouldn't come as too much of a surprise if they put Howard out there instead.

Kris Dunn
PG, Chicago Bulls

New Bulls GM Marc Eversley told the media that Kris Dunn didn't participate in the Bulls' minicamp because he is still "not healthy" as he continues to recover from an MCL injury that he suffered on January 31.

Dunn is a restricted free agent this offseason and definitely improved his stock in 2019-20 by proving that he can play multiple positions on the court and does not need to be pigeon-holed into the point guard position. He should garner some interest around the league and it will be interesting to see how much money the Bulls' new management is willing to invest in the 26-year-old.

The Rockets are looking for a new coach after the team parted ways with Mike D'Antoni. There have been other names floated out there including Doc Rivers, who recently parted ways with the Clippers. Stay tuned as the coaching carousel continues.
