Pacers' coach Jim O'Brien has put Stephen Graham ahead of rookie Brandon Rush in the team's rotation.

"I just think it's in a state of flux right now," O'Brien said of the team's swingman position. "If you're going to give a guy a chance like Stephen, you have to give him a chance. I have a lot of confidence in both of them."

Rush did not play in Indiana's overtime loss to Boston on Sunday night while Graham played 14 minutes.

"When you're studying all the stats we do and a guy is clearly not performing at the highest level, then it would be very, very difficult for me to look Stephen Graham in the eye and not give him his chance," O'Brien said.
