Neto is in contention to start at point guard Wednesday versus Detroit, Andy Larsen of KSL TV reports.

EDGE Analysis

Neto has been competing with Trey Burke to start at point since Dante Exum tore his ACL in early August. The Brazilian averaged just 16.4 minutes per game in five preseason contests to Burke's 24.6 minutes over the same five outings, but coach Quin Snyder has still not made the decision of who will start Wednesday in Detroit. This trend of either Neto or Burke could continue on and off throughout the 2015-16 season.
