5. Move T.J. Warren Back Into Starting Lineup

This is more of a minor tweak, and it should be a pretty easy one for Watson to make, but after three games easing back into the action following a 13-game absence due to a minor head injury, T.J. Warren looks ready for the starting lineup again.

In his third game back, Warren finished with 19 points and five rebounds in 29 minutes off the bench.

“T.J. found his rhythm,” Watson said. “Big shots, he plays within his own pace, great scorer. Deflections, getting up into the ball, fighting. You can tell he kind of hit a wall with fatigue late but he pushed through.”

Warren probably needed some time to get his conditioning back, which might be why he only played 14 and 10 minutes in his first two games back.

But after that display against the Rockets, it’s probably time to demote P.J. Tucker back to bench duty and see if Warren can inject some life back into what looked like a Most Improved Player of the Year campaign early on.
