The Utes started freshman forward Donnie Tillman at small forward for the second game in a row on Thursday night against Washington. It marked just his second appearance in the starting lineup this season.
Tillman’s return from a foot injury and Chris Seeley bouncing back from gallbladder surgery have given the Utes more depth and, as a result, more flexibility with their starting lineup.
“I think Chris played solid minutes and proved that he’s a guy that we can lean on,” Krystkowiak said of Seeley’s play last week.
