Joe InglesSF, Utah JazzJoe Ingles took Bojan Bogdanovic's place in the starting lineup for Thursday's scrimmage and turned in six points, five assists, a steal and a 3-of-9 shooting line in 21 minutes.
Ingles is going to need to step up after a rocky regular season. He doesn't offer the same scoring punch as Bogdanovic but the Jazz will need him to space the floor and fit in as a wing defender and secondary playmaker if they want to make a deep playoff run. While a move to the starting five sounds good, ultimately the friction that caused Ingles to fall to late-round value was caused by the presence of Mike Conley. We'll see if things smooth out over the rest of the Orlando games.
