Hensley
Nolley
DDJ
Rob

The 4 position has been our greatest headache so far and it makes you wonder what the coaching staff is scheming to get the most out of JD and Hensley.

I'd consider letting Hensley start and bringing JD off the bench.

Hensley would still only be getting 6-7 minutes/half while JD would get 13-14 but the change of roles could make us a better defensive team when the "first unit" is out there and a better offensive team when the "second unit" is playing - especially if JD is mostly going up against the other team's back-up 4 on both ends of the floor.

Agreed. It's worth a shot.
