I'd go Jimmy and Dame.

Jimmy hasn't had someone who can help him close games like Dame can.

It would take a lot of pressure off of Jimmy to be the go to scorer and scoring isn't his true strength. I think that they would fit very well together.

I'd wonder how Shai and AD would look in terms of chemistry

people don't understand, Jimmy and Dame would be the best duo since LeBron and AD 2020, or Steph and KD. Jimmy is a do-it-all wing who just so happens to have the ability to drop 50 or 60 points in a playoff game. Dame is one of the greatest scorers ever and his range and playmaking and ability to get to the free throw line would make Jimmy that much better.
