BYU Basketball gets to play their first game against another team on Wednesday night.
Sure, it’s just an exhibition game against Division II Saint Martin’s, but it’s Cougar basketball nonetheless.
Head coach Dave Rose has two exhibition games to experiment with the lineups and find a solid rotation.
That’ll be even more tricky and more important with Nick Emery out for the first nine games of the season. He won’t hit the court until the Cougars take on Utah in early December, so Rose has to build a rotation without one of his key players.
Once Emery returns the rotation will probably look quite different, so we’ll focus on the pre-Emery rotation for now.
