CTInsider article: Newtons decision coming soon

[Brandon86]

Yeah? It’s 2023 . Try not handing a top 10 5 star a starting job. . Let’s see how that works out.

Agreed. I don’t think Hurley gonna hand anybody anything though. He gonna get the chance to start just like everybody else. I think he does start though.

I like the old philosophical question:

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, is the husband still wrong?".

My wife says Yes

No individual player is more important than the culture Coach Hurley has created, nobody will be handed playing time let alone a starting job, everything will be earned.

 

[TheHorde]

A lineup that has Castle, Newton (hopefully), Andre Jackson (hopefully), Karaban, and Clingan starting and playing on average 25-28 minutes each is the most likely outcome. Having size and athleticism in the backcourt and at small forward should help with rebounding and defending. AK and DC will likely make putting on muscle and strength a priority in the offseason anyway. If Andre and Tristen are back, watch out.

Stephon Castle will start game 1 WITH Tristen Newton. The 3 spot is the one up for grabs The End.

Castle, Newton, Jackson

OR

Castle, Newton, Alleyne/Timberlake

Samson Johnson has to be approaching this coming season with the mindset of earning a starting spot also. Karaban will most likely be working on adding perimeter wing skills/ball handling/driving/midrange. Just sayin.

Newton's decision is maybe the biggest key to the whole lineup.
