EDGE Analysis

While he was initially ruled out for Sunday's tilt earlier in the day, it turns out McRoberts, who has been sidelined all year with a lower body injury, is feeling well enough to make his season debut. That said, he figures to be on some sort of minutes limit, though he isn't expected to play a large role of the Macs' bench regardless.
