I hear you. If DFS comes back in January and plays the rest of this year and next at a high level, I won’t care. But that’s IF. Right now it definitely sucks.
Ty Jerome...who also hasn't played this season, and is likely not going to get back onto the court until January, roughly the same time frame as DFS? At the start of Free Agency, if you had to decide whether you needed a backup to Steven Adams, who can't play B2Bs, Tari Eason and 37-year old Kevin Durant, or Fred Van Vleet/Amen Thompson/Reed Sheppard, I probably also would have rolled the dice on investing in Bigs and Wings versus signing a depth guard. Unfortunate that it didn't quite work out in their favor, but if FVV was healthy, we absolutely would not have enough minutes for him, and there's a reasonable shot that he completely blocks Reed's breakout this year, since their skill sets seem to overlap a decent amount based on where they are in their careers.
