Here’s Tyronn Lue’s response when I asked him after tonight’s game if the 5th starter decision will come solely from the three players who started preseason games (Terance Mann, Robert Covington, Nicolas Batum) pic.twitter.com/aBOYifpD43 – 1:56 AM

No Clippers practice tomorrow.
Kawhi and PG have not played at all in second halves.
Another 5+ days in between games after Thursday
I would tentatively expect stars to play in the preseason finale.
Should be a good way to end the preseason. A free game against Jokic. – 1:44 AM

Consistent refrain from multiple Clippers tonight:
Mason Plumlee is a valuable player on that second unit. He clearly makes the game a lot easier for all of those guys. A good reason to hold him out, so that they can see what different lineups look like without him. – 1:41 AM

“Rookie Hunter Tyson was the high-man for Denver against the Clippers. Tuesday was by far his best performance of the preseason, and he finished with 19 points on 50 percent shooting.”

Ty Lue said all three forwards who have started during preseason all bring something different defensively, said all three have done a “great job” so far. The fifth starter will not necessarily come from the group of RoCo, Batum, Mann, he said. – 1:12 AM

Reggie Jackson can still dunk
Russell Westbrook can hit a 3
Ivica Zubac looks healthy (even if he still can’t score when team runs first play for him)
Julian Strawther can shoot

Bulls have attempted 23 3-pointers. Unless they go bonkers in final 3 minutes, this will be the third straight regulation preseason game they’ve attempted fewer than 30 after taking 35 in opener. (They had 29 in regulation vs. Denver before double OT pushed them past 30.) – 10:18 PM
