Jimmer Fredette's playing time was inconsistent last season, and he often played off the ball. The third-year guard is searching for a more consistent role and rotation under Mike Malone.

"We didn't know what the rotation was (last season)," Fredette said. "Guys didn't know if they were going to play one game and not the next so you just had to try to stay ready and prepare as much as you can. It's hard for players to be able to do that but you're professionals so that's what you have to do.

"Hopefully this year we'll have more of a set rotation so we'll know when we're going to play and who we're going to play with."

Fredette said he feels most comfortable playing point guard but will welcome game action whenever he can get it.

Fredette's minutes decreased from 18 minutes a game as a rookie to 14 last season.
