Go get Marvin Bagley, still out there and not too sought after it seems, he may have to settle for a low-ish contract because of his spotty time in Memphis, under the radar and semi-unproven (but kind of is in a way IMO).. he's not a pure center and can play PF just fine.
Bagley would give that different look at C as well, when needed to go smaller, more agile, instead of Lopez, to backup Zubac -- instead of using Batum again too much there.
Bagley spaces the floor, scores in the paint, brings defensive length in the paint and agility in general. Get him.. before the Lakers or Suns do.

A Perfect Fit at Power Forward
Forget the failed experiments trying to make Bagley into a traditional big man. Where he truly thrives is at the power forward spot, where his mobility, scoring touch, and rebounding can stretch defenses and exploit mismatches.
Or Dominick Barlow, as well.. but may be too "young", and not be given a chance.
Feel like the Lakers/Suns will get one of them each.
Trey Lyles still out there, too.. but feel like he may be out of range price-wise. Never know, though.
