Having gone through a coaching change and a somewhat major trade, the Phoenix Suns' rotation isn't set in stone. They've been trying to strike a balance between the present and the future -- and that's no more evident than at the center position.

With the addition of Greg Monroe to Alex Len and Tyson Chandler, interim coach Jay Triano has had three different centers to find minutes for. But it appears he's settled in on an approach. Monroe's only played one game in the last five while Chandler and Len have split the minutes. Because of that, Chandler's seen an uptick in production.

In his last five, Chandler has one double-double and three games with double-digit boards. If we set aside a poor showing against the Los Angeles Clippers back on December 20th, he's averaged 22.3 FanDuel points in the last four. He draws a matchup with the Atlanta Hawks, who own the league's lowest defensive rebounding rate (73.8%) and third-worst defensive rating (111 points per 100 possessions). It's a good spot for the veteran to grab 10 or more rebounds once again.
