Nikko will also play regularly IMO.

Not a ton, but he'll be used in spot duty to give the other post guys breathers. There will be times when Tilmon and one of Jontay/Puryear are on the bench and we want a second post guy on the floor. Martin's a guy who has always seemed to favor size when it's an option, so even though we could go smaller with MPJ or Barnett at the 4 in those situations, I think Nikko still plays in most games. Maybe only 7-10 minutes (if not a little less), but he'll make regular appearances IMO.

Smith and Geist will likely see 5-10 minutes/game in the games they do play but will also have several games where they don't leave the bench.

CVL will play if he can hit 40% of his threes. He won't if he can't.
