Pacers' Aaron Brooks: Rotation spot appears secure
Pacers coach Nate McMillan confirmed last week that Brooks will likely enter the season as a member of the rotation, Pacers.com's Mark Montieth reports.
Analysis:
McMillan indicated the Pacers would open with a nine-man rotation, with Brooks and Rodney Stuckey representing the top two backcourt options off the bench. It's expected that Brooks will act as the primary backup to Jeff Teague, which could leave around 15-to-20 minutes for him each night. That's likely not enough playing time for Brooks to make a splash in the fantasy realm, so he won't be worth drafting in most formats.
