With Little (and Liddell) out, here is our roster sorted by height. Rotation players highlighted:

Bol Bol 7'3"
Jusuf Nurkic 7'0"
Kevin Durant 6'11"
Mason Plumlee 6'10"

Oso Ighodaro 6'10"
Jalen Bridges 6'7"
Ryan Dunn 6'6"
Devin Booker 6'6"
Damion Lee 6'5"
Josh Okogie 6'4"
Royce O'Neale 6'4"
Grayson Allen 6'4"
Bradley Beal 6'4"

TyTy Washington 6'3"
Monte Morris 6'2"
Tyus Jones 6'1"

Collin Gillespie 6'1"

The only classic "wings" on this roster are rookies. Booker's officially a forward.

Get ready for some really small ball.

Even our longest player is considered by some(Nurk said it in interview) more a SG than a big. Yikes.

Wanted to but didn’t think they would actually stretch Little. I hope they can address the small forward.

How isn't Royce O'Neale a classic wing?

He is 6'5 but he has a 6'9 wingspan and weights 226 lbs...so I wouldn't say that he is undersized as an SF.

Okogie and rookies Dunn and Jalen Bridges give depth at that position. And you know that Booker and KD can play as a "wings" too.

Cov would be decent. Okoro would be a coup if they can sort out their RFA situation and we sign him. But I wonder if it's worth keeping that spot open and see who else becomes available. I'm always iffy about loading up all 15 spots super early
