For much of the season, J.J. Barea was seeing time at point guard and shooting guard, but it appears with Roddy Beaubois' emergence that Barea will settle in at shooting guard and Beaubois will get backup minutes behind Jason Kidd.
"He's earned them because he's worked to get better," Carlisle said of the rookie. "I feel he's earned the opportunity to get into the rotation. It's meaningful because he's played mostly off the ball this year. In practices, he's played a fair amount of point and he's studying the position very diligently and we feel like it's another situation where he can help give us an advantage with his quickness, length and speed."
Carlisle added that he sees point guard as Beaubois' eventual full-time position.
