    Leonard didn't start and Davis has an injury.
    Moe got hit in the face early and was out for the middle part of the game getting stitches to his cheek.

    Right. To be specific, on this road trip (i.e. the last 4 games) Leonard has averaged 21 mpg after having played 15 mpg since the season started. While not a starter, he has been placed into more meaningful minutes.

    In the same 4 games, Vonleh's mpg were 20 after having been 11 the rest of the season. He was a starter in the last 2 games.

    Same conclusion. They are being shopped for the deadline a month from now.

    After my post at halftime, McCollum was still arriving an hour late whenever his man shot. See:
