Utah Jazz coach Quin Snyder has a dilemma in deciding which wing players should get most minutes

SALT LAKE CITY — Jazz coach Quin Snyder has a dilemma of sorts as the regular season approaches in regards to his wing position.

Sure, he’s going to start Joe Ingles and Donovan Mitchell, who are both coming off terrific seasons and have played well in the preseason.

However, three other wing players — Royce O’Neale, Alec Burks and rookie Grayson Allen — have all played very well in the preseason, leaving Snyder with the decision on who will get the most minutes off the bench.

Unlike the preseason, when starters’ minutes are reduced and bench players see a lot more time on the court, the regular season means that the starters will stay in the game for longer stretches, leaving fewer minutes for the reserves.
