Their defense allowed 101 points per game in their first 3 games. Since then, they've averaged 125 points per game. Small sample size? Was the defensive coordinator really that much of a loss?
So, Hayes starts the 2nd half despite Burks playing well tonight (and lately). No reason for Sasser to not get into the game now, but it will probably be only 2 minutes before and after the 3rd/4th quarter break to give Hayes some rest.
Cunningham strained left knee, out for the remainder of this game.
He banged his knee later in the Warriors game. I wonder if this could be a hangover from that?
