They're bad. So why are they worth scouting?

They're small. See below:

Their tallest player is 6'7 and 47% of the time, their 5 is 6'5 225.

Why does this matter?

PLAY SMALL!

Why is this important?

Let the young guards and wings loose. Minimal minutes for Sanogo, Whaley, Akok, Cole and Martin. Lots of minutes for Hawkins on the wing and Gaffney at the point. Free Diggins! Great opportunity to get other players to handle the rock.

On Saturday, their game against Grambling is against a much more traditionally sized team, so that allows a tune up for the bigs:

On Tuesday, rest the bigs & Cole/Martin, let the guards fly and help develop some more confidence handling the ball!

If I'm Dan Hurley, after a "regular" starting lineup, I'd go heavy on the below lineup:

Diggins, Gaffney, Hawkins, Jackson, Johnson/Springs
