Rumor Central: Has Fred Hoiberg set his starting five?

With two preseason games to play, there is a good chance Fred Hoiberg's starting lineup will include Jerian Grant and Justin Holiday in the backccourt and Paul Zipser, Nikola Mirotic and Robin Lopez in the frontcourt when the Chicago Bulls open the regular season on Oct. 19 against the Toronto Raptors, speculates the Chicago Tribune.

When asked about that group, Hoiberg responded: "I like the way they're playing for each other."

Kris Dunn was expected to be the starting point guard, but he's sidelined after dislocating his left index finger on Friday, and there is no timeline for when he might be cleared to play.
