The biggest needs now is a veteran PG to mentor Amen, and to run the starting lineup whilst he develops.

And a rim protecting Centre that can space the floor.

Tyus Jones is arguably the best backup PG in the comp, he's a veteran whilst still being only 27.

Brooke Lopez is a great defender and top end rim protector in the league, plus he is a good spacer of the floor, so he will open the lane for our super athletic team.

Only concerns will be that Lopez is 35 , so he is only a temporary fix, and we will need Sengun to really develop his defensive game and shooting during the next couple seasons. Also a concern is that Tyus Jones is an unrestricted FA next season, so we could lose him if we can't get him to resign or buy in.

New Starting Lineup:

PG: Tyus Jones (until Amen is ready)

SG: Jalen Green

SF: Tari Eason

PF: Jabari Smith Jr.

C: Brooke Lopez

New Bench Lineup:

PG: Amen Thompson

SG: KPJ or JGUP

SF: Can Whitmore or JGUP

PF: Usman Garuba or Jaesante Tate

C: Alpheran Sengun (Whilst he develops more under Brooke Lopez mentorship)
