What happened: The five-man unit takes the floor for Tuesday's regular-season contest, with LaVine entering off a 37-point performance on Sunday.

Why it matters: Pairing Achiuwa beside Sabonis and Hunter maintains frontcourt continuity following Achiuwa's July contract extension, while Acuff Jr. continues to share perimeter duties after opening October in the preseason starting unit.

What to watch: Rotation minutes and fourth-quarter closing combinations will show whether this five-man group remains the fixed starting lineup over the upcoming schedule.
