I think the OP got the starting lineup correct. Even if Joseph struggles at times IMO he will still start but Mike will get major minutes at the PG spot in those games. That also highlights why BJ will be getting minutes. Who is the 3rd forward if Mike is spending a most of his minutes as a guard? Look at the available players.

Guards: Trevor, Buss, Mike, Kaleb (and BJ can play the 2G)
Forwards: Tyler, Chris, BJ (and Mike can play the 3)
Centers: Rakeen, Chino (DC2 very questionable he sees any time at this point)

IMO BJ is the main backup forward on this squad (although in certain situations he may get a few minutes at the 2G spot), the other forward plays the 4 when BJ is in.
IMO Mike is the main backup guard at both spots and should see around 20min a game possibly more.
IMO Chino is the only option as a backup center and is likely to see 8-10 minutes a game. Chris is probably the emergency 3rd guy at this spot but not ideal.

Buss is the guy I can't figure but could also easily carve some time our for himself. We know he can shoot, he has long arms and a quick step which after a year in the system could translate into being a defensive beast.
