But you'd think playing time would be important to him, since he may want more than a minimum contract after this season.
Though he may have a lot less pressure than he did at Charlotte, where after he signed the big contract, he couldn't really produce the scoring expected of him.

You can get better playmaking by having a top tier playmaker, or you can get better playmaking by having a lot of fairly solid playmakers and a system to put them in the right spots.
I can't judge how good of a system Lue can develop, but swapping Shamet for Kennard and adding Luc gives the team 4 6'5+ wings who can handle, run pick and rolls and pass.
That's always a good thing. Let's see if he has a Boris Diaw post Charlotte revival too, maybe he's more of a skinny small ball 4 at this stage than a 3 when it comes to mobility.

Jay Scrubb, the 6-foot-6 guard drafted 55th overall, will undergo surgery this week to insert a screw in his right foot, according to a person with knowledge of the plan who asked for anonymity to discuss the player’s health. The recovery is expected to take three to four months. Scrubb was the junior college player of the year and will receive one of the team’s two two-way contracts. He has explosive athleticism, and the surgery is a step to maintain it in the future.
