I wouldn't expect  any more changes to the starting lineup until Paige returns because there is not a significant gap in talent between the players in the current starting lineup and those that are returning from injury.  Both the eye test and the stats (A/TO and PPP) would tell  us  that Nika is not an upgrade over Evina Westbrook as the starting PG.   Nika is  averaging 10.5 MPG on the season and is still recovering from an injury.   It would be unreasonable to expect Nika  to even ramp up to the 24.2 MPG she averaged last season & be  among the team leader in MPG.  Nika's injury is 9 months old-longer than Azzi's injury.   When Azzi/Aubrey/& Nika are ready to return,  work them in slowly with Aubrey Sub in for Caroline at the 3, Azzi subs for Christyn and Nika subs for Evina at PG.  AE and Amari can continue to provide backup minutes at the 4 and 5 positions.   Sticking with the same starters will also allow them time to continue to develop as a unit which is badly needed.
