Math I know; Basketball I'm a little weaker on.
Assuming that each of the five positions is distinct there are 8! / 3! or 6720 possible combinations.
Assuming that all of the five positions are the same (I know this isn't true; I'm just putting it up for comparison) there are 8 choose 5 ( 8!/(3!*5!)) or 56 possible combinations.
If some of the positions are the same but others aren't, then the answer is somewhere in between.
