Beat writer Mike Wells expects George Hill (ankle, day-to-day) to eventually challenge Darren Collison for the starting point guard job. Without being prompted, coach Frank Vogel said that a healthy Hill would push for one of the starting backcourt jobs. Wells "can't see" Paul George moving to the bench. That leaves Collison, who has struggled at times this year and is averaging just 11.3 points to go with 5.2 assists. Hill will need some time to knock the rust off, but he may put the starter on thin ice at some point after the All-Star break.
