Re: Buy-out candidates?
I like Len. He's serviceable. He's a big body not like Mark Williams who's a bit lanky and wouldn't last after a few hits during 1st round of playoffs.

Yeah I'm happy with this for now.
Yeah, Boucher, Hayes, Koloko are all too light giving up 60 lbs on Jokic,
Theis is too short at 6-8,
Len is 7-0, 250 lbs at least have the size and have a chance to hold his ground.

Boucher is a great small ball 5. He rates as the best impact guy of all the possibilities.

He's a decent role player. I havent seen much of him but what I have seen is that he seems pretty cool and humble and willing to do what the teams ask for. He's a broad looking guy (not a lanky 7 foot, more like your Steven Adams sort of build but not as muscular and strong as he is of course) I think he will work out great holding his own in our team for that position in regular and playoffs games night in and night out.

Then we should keep Hayes as a main center and use him as back up In certain match ups like vs Jokics and other big centers If that's the case.
What's his rebounds and defense like, can he catch lobs etc? I'll do some more research when I get home later today.

I haven't seen him much, but what I've read: DEPM pictures him as a bottom 2% defender this year (just a hair above Mark Williams). But last year's Kings review describes him as a nice utility guy with actually the best defensive impact metrics of the team. Which description is closer to the truth, idk.

Re: Buy-out candidates?
Len/McGee/Biyombo (possibly, currently signed w spurs)/Dwight?
Dwight has more potential to be fueled by emotion for a good 3-4 month stint. More than anyone else.
I can see him making a good impact for us until June when he will perhaps wither away and retire lol.

There aren't any representative stats for someone, who plays few minutes per game. Last 5 games, 2,4,5,3,6.

I mean, we can even sign Dwight solely for guarding jokic in the playoffs (if we meet them).
Have him signed, sit on the bench, become a monster working out, tape a picture of jokic on his mirror which he will stare at everyday until at the end, he will punch it breaking the mirror... I think that will be a great signing.
