Pistons considering lineup change with Anthony Tolliver as starter
Detroit Pistons head coach Stan Van Gundy is considering starting Anthony Tolliver at power forward and playing Tobias Harris at small forward, reports Rod Beard of The Detroit News.
What It Means:
Van Gundy did say that he'd only consider doing this against bigger teams like the San Antonio Spurs. The change would send Stanley Johnson to the bench and change up the rotations for Detroit. But we'll have to wait and see if SVG ultimately decides to switch things up.
Averaging 18.7 minutes, 6.7 points and 2.7 rebounds, Tolliver is projected for 16.8 FanDuel points in Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
