Terry Rozier shines when called upon

On Friday Terry Rozier came in and helped in an unexpected way. By rebounding from the guard position.

As we discussed in the Rookie Week article, the first year players on this team haven't had a lot of opportunities to play this year. Brad Stevens rightly decided to shorten his rotation and leave the rookies (and James Young) to learn by watching and getting some run with the Maine Red Claws.

However, each of the rookies has had brief opportunities to contribute in non-garbage-time minutes. Injuries, foul trouble, and matchups occasionally create a need for the young guys to step up and help.
