In the midst of a three-game losing streak, Bibby, who has used 11 starting lineups in 17 games this season, continues to use practices as an audition.

“Everybody sees the different lineups and want to know why,” Bibby said. “They tell us who starts and plays a lot of minutes--by the way they play in practice.”
