Ariza will come off the bench Friday versus Milwaukee, Jonathan Feigan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Ariza was replaced by Corey Brewer in the starting lineup in a last minute switch. The move is certainly a surprise considering Ariza has started every game he has played this season. It is unclear if Houston made the change due to matchups, or if they are experimenting with something new. The situation will need to be monitored going forward.
