Mizzou basketball: Four-guard lineup fits Tigers roster well

Mizzou basketball plans on using plenty of guards this season. The Tigers have a lot of options, so using more than two or three at a time is a nice addition for coach Cuonzo Martin this season.

Martin said he will play up to four guards at the same time this year, adding some of the new wings — Tray Jackson and Kobe Brown — fit into that guard role while they play the 4 spot. Torrence Watson and Javon Pickett are a wings who can play defense on smaller guards as well.

So knowing that, the Tigers can use many rotations night in and night out, in particular in the backcourt.
