(UPDATED: 5:25 p.m.) Coach Kevin McHale will again use Jason Collins at the starting center spot against a lanky Houston team. One lineup switch coming at you, though: Sebastian Telfair will not play at all. He is not on the active players list for tonight’s game.
McHale this morning said Telfair was bothered by a sore groin. And now this afternoon we learned that Bassy wants to play, but the trainers feel otherwise. McHale, who was glued to Big Ten basketball on the TV before meeting with the media at 4:40, said his next stop was to speak with the trainers regarding an update on Telfair. Whatever was said convinced McHale enough to hold Telfair out.
