Versatile wing Terance Mann, a focal point in trade talks for the 76ers' James Harden, has been chosen as the Clippers' fifth starter.
Terance Mann will be part of the Clippers’ starting lineup when the NBA’s regular season begins next week. Though point guard Russell Westbrook, wings Kawhi Leonard and Paul George and center Ivica Zubac had long established themselves as starters, the role of the fifth starter had not been revealed until coach Tyronn Lue’s announcement before practice Friday.
“I think his versatility of being able to guard point guards as well as twos, threes and fours makes the most sense right now so that’s what we’re going to go with right now,” Lue said. 'We'll use our 10-, 15-game sample size and see how it looks but I think with our mindset this year of going into with a defensive mindset to start every game, I think he best fits that for us right now.
