    DFS is not a guard, so comparing him to Okogie isn’t really necessary. If Tari misses significant time before the all-star break he might be traded, hopefully for a journeyman backup guard and a good 26 pick which is a strong draft. Okogie might get 10m or so to stay and that would be a bargain in my opinion. I love Tari, but he has to stay on the floor.

    He may not be a guard but if he can guard guards and hit the three at a high rate that's close enough for me.

    I don’t think he can guard guards, especially coming off injury. He is, however, a perfect Tari replacement. There is a good chance we can’t re-sign Tari next year so I think the odds are 60-40 that he is traded.

    Yeah, DFS will compete minutes with Bari and Tari, not Okogie. That's why we aren't missing him that much. With Tari down, we need him now.
