    I like Matthews, Brooks and Tate as valuable role player guys. I'm not yet convinced with Green. He's too RAW. Some players don't shed that label. I like Sengun and Christopher. The rest are tradeables for me. KPJ might make it but I'd rather trade the other players for a better PG. I really like somebody like Simmons/Billups/Kidd. Big PGs who can switch to defend bigger players. Well, if you can get a Curry type shooter/PG, I won't mind. Sengun can function as a point forward.

    I think most people have covered what I was gonna say, but is the KPJ injury something he's been dealing with all year? It would explain a lot, because his stats and efficiency have declined in alarming fashion.
    Obviously Sengun will be a very good nba player at the absolute worst, but I don't know what heights he could reach because of his athletic limitations if he doesn't develop a very good 3 pointer.
    Green was always a gamble, but especually with Sengun here I don't think it was a mistake. None of the other rookies, and no one else on our team (and hardly anyone in the league) has the ability to create their own shot like him. We also probably need to play him in spaced out lineups, because he's shooting 65% at the rim right now even with a disastrous start there (under 50% a few games into the season)

    I should also mention KPJ went from shooting 72% and 74% at the rim (which are incredibly good) to shooting 53% this year. I can't imagine he completely lose all of his finishing skills out of nowhere
