It looked like second-year guard Brandon Miller was set to make his return from a glute strain tonight but was downgraded to OUT after going through pregame shootaround. Veteran guard Seth Curry will fill his spot in the starting lineup.

Moments ago, both teams released their starting five for tonight's game.
