Now let’s look at some news that’s come in throughout the day to see if anything’s changed in our minds or in the NBA landscape. It's a shorter slate and a light news day, but we'll be updating as stuff rolls in. Also throw out some ideas in the comments and we can take it from there.

Deploy him as usual.   What We’re Waiting to Know What's up withRajon Rondo's toe or thumb or whatever He's been listed as probable for weeks, and this downgrade to questionable is ominous. Darren Collison has already been playing a lot of minutes, so more run would make him a phenomenal play. Keep on eye on this, especially for late-swap sites like DraftKings.

I'm assuming he'll play limited minutes as best, and like all the Memphis guys as much as I did in their last go-around. <Pau Gasol and Derrick...
