So with Kyrie and Gordon being added....how do our young guys get touches?

48 minutes of basketball, 5 guys at a time... They will get touches. I hope they make the most of it.

They're gonna be wide open.

They just need to embrace being role players this year.  There are plenty of minutes, and they'll get shots within the flow of the offense.

I'm really looking for a leap from a guy like Jaylen. I want to see him get opportunities to get the ball in the hoop more since he's (hopefully) here for a long while. With guys like Hayward and Irving and Horford starting, won't it be kind of hard for him to get touches?

This is not little league where everyone gets to touch the ball. They are welcome to prove they belong.

Earn them with solid play execution within their roles.

Exactly. I expect Tatum to fill sort of a G Green role his rookie year.  Brown may make a leap in his game but may not equal Bradley's production which is fine.

rest of the game,  similar pattern.    Keep an eye out on Tatum vs Semi .  Yabu vs Theiss vs Morris

Brown, Smart, Rozier due to experience/versatility should get nice mins off the bench
