If the Pacers land either Dybantsa or Peterson in the draft, do they move guys like Nembhard and Mathurin/Nesmith to the bench and go with a lineup of something like
Starters- Hali, Nesmith, Dybantsa, Siakam, ? 2nd Unit- Nembhard, McConnell, Mathurin, Toppin, Jackson
Or do they trade a player(s) and for who?
In this scenario they trade players to bring back Sabonis and take either Peterson or Dybantsa.
Starters- Hali, Peterson/Nesmith, Dybantsa/Nesmith, Siakam, Sabonis 2nd Unit- McConnell, Ellis, Furphy, Toppin, Jackson
I am also intrigued by a lineup of Hali, Nembhard, Nesmith, Siakam, Boozer and then Mathurin as the 6th man. But it’s a high possibility we take a non center in the draft
