1. legit 4/5
2. guard/wing shooter

5. pure pg
i've been anti-millsap because i think he's pretty close to cooked and would rather chase someone younger, but it's hard to deny that he would probably tick a lot of boxes in the regular season.
looking at the depth chart on paper, the wing depth still seems kind of sketchy, especially because we're lacking reliable shooters. i don't really want to be relying on troy brown as a rotation piece, yknow? in practice, though, i'm sure we're going to see a ton of three-guard lineups, and if coby can establish himself as a catch-and-shoot specialist off the bench then that would shore things up on the shooting front.
if you're a lonzo skeptic and see ayo and coby as combo/shooting guards, we arguably don't have an actual point guard on the roster. i don't actually expect us to make a move here, but it's kinda weird!
in the end, i would guess we're gonna add a PF and save the last roster spot for trades/buyouts.
Post Lauri trade, I'd be leaning toward another offensive minded big like Aldridge or Cousins. I wonder if we could nab a bought out Love?
