Coach Rick Carlisle confirmed that he plans on riding Roddy Beaubois at point guard with Jason Kidd (calf) sidelined.
Unlike previous stints, it looks like Beaubois has a long leash this time. "This is where you learn a lot in a short period of time," Carlisle said. Beaubois is a special offensive talent that once scored 40 points in a 2010 game and also has 10 blocks in his last three games. He'll start and play 32-plus minutes for at least the next week.
