Based on overall performance, the ones who look like they could easily be replaced with Prime early-90s Celtics’ era Reggie Lewis are Chris Morris (New Jersey), Donald Royal (Orlando), Jeff Grayer (Philadelphia), Scott Burrell (Charlotte), Ron Harper (Chicago), David Benoit (Utah) and Terry Dehere (L.A. Clippers)
Which one of those most replaceable starting SG/SF would you bench in favor of an upgrade in the form of Prime early-90s Celtics’ era Reggie Lewis?
And which starting core would Prime early-90s Celtics’ era Reggie Lewis fit better with? Assuming you put him on either the Nets, Magic, Sixers, Hornets, Bulls, Jazz or Clippers.

Knicks. Ewing and Lewis would be a great combo. Especially defensively.
