If he's out, I would not get my hopes up for a win. Let's see if we can find a true backup PG in the roster. Maybe Oweh can do it, maybe we can run Perry for a bit to see. And let's hope got no other injuries
I’d sacrifice a chance at a win tonight for his long term health. We are gonna need him and I don’t think it’s smart to try and get him hurt more for a longer period going into conference play.

Yeah. I’d like to get 10-15 min out of him in 2-3 min spurts as long as he docs say it won’t cause additional damage and he’s able to cut semi effectively with a heavy taped ankle and the hard “active ankle” ankle braces

I think we'll be fine with Perry in the game offensively, but Few will exploit him on defense. I thought Perry might get a couple of minutes last game after we bogged down on offense without Butler. The ball moves when Perry is in the game.
I think he could contribute in spurts but as you said over the course of the game he is gonna get eaten up right now defensively.

I was thinking similar. We may see more of him tonight if Butler is either out or nowhere near 100%.
Chandler brings nothing. Why would we wanna put a non effective player on the court vs just play the better ones we have more minutes? Chandler, Perry, Noah are all a year away or more.

My guess is it will be an 8-man rotation if Butler is out, but we will see. I don’t expect big minutes from Chandler or Perry on this stage

Butler can get to the hoop and is the best defender on the team.

Probably the only guy you can’t be without.

It would take a miraculous effort to win now.
