Gentry: Suns lineup could change frequently

Dec 12, 2012, 8:56 PM | Updated: 9:06 pm

With nine new players on the roster this season, the Phoenix Suns have had a hard time coming up with a consistent starting lineup.

And for that reason, head coach Alvin Gentry is making another shift to the Suns’ starting five.

Veteran power forward Luis Scola will move back into the starting lineup, replacing second-year man Markieff Morris.

But Gentry, a guest of Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 620 Wednesday, says the starting five could change frequently in the near future.

“We’ve just got to look at it and go ‘hey, this might be a better lineup for this game’ and that’s what we’ve got to go with,” he said. “We still want to try and continue to tweak the thing and get to the point where we’ve got consistency where we really feel good about what we’re going to get night in, night out.”
