In this week’s episode of Inside The Cylinder, Matt and I break down Sekou Doumbouya’s minutes, or lack thereof. After a two-game stretch where the 20-year-old Doumbouya averaged just 5 minutes per game, and a third that saw him get a DNP-CD this past Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks, fans are asking questions and their concern is rising.
Head Coach Dwane Casey has noted that Doumbouya hasn’t played because he’s been buried in the power forward rotation, but there’s been some instances where Griffin hasn’t played due to rest, and that hasn’t resulted in major minutes for the second-year player from France.
