What happened: Both players are designated for rest on the second leg of a back-to-back. Their absences remove two primary backcourt options from Sunday’s lineup.
Why it matters: Creation and late-clock duties will shift deeper into the rotation. The lineup change comes during the 2026 regular season.
By the numbers: In a 104-99 win on July 30, Jackie Young had 29 points and nine assists while Chelsea Gray added 16 points and four assists, combining for 45 points and 13 assists.
What to watch: Watch for the revised starters and how minutes are distributed across the backcourt.
