With or without Sasser, I like this. The two most likely scenarios are that he plays and is limited, or doesn’t play at all.
Shead is the #2 on this team in terms of usage, and he’s cleared this line in 11/L17 and 4/L5.
This game will be hilariously slow, but Shead should see ample opportunity as Houston’s only reliable ball handler (outside of Sasser).
