Joe Harris vs. Royce O’Neale: How real?

Steve Nash says there is no competition for a starting spot between Joe Harris and Royce O’Neale. Nope.

“I think they are both going to play a lot,” the head coach said the other day. “I don’t know if one is taking minutes from the other. I think I feel they are both going to play a lot of minutes and play a big role.”

But it’s hard not to think of the two 6’6” wings as a natural competition. Both are 3-point plus shooters. O’Neale’s defense is better but Harris’ shooting is better. One is 29, the other 31.
