EDGE Analysis

DeMarcus Cousins strained his Achilles in the second quarter and Ben McLemore played an ineffective 10 minutes on the night, so coach George Karl ended up using a two-point guard lineup for much of the second half. There's no indication yet that Collison will enter the starting lineup, but even on the second unit he's averaged 14.0 points and 5.0 assists in 29.7 minutes through the first three games of the season.
