Every player is at least a decent rebounder and Luka and PJ are borderline exceptional. PJ is a much better rebounder and defender than Powell and has long enough arms to be a presence in the paint. All lineups prior to the mid-season trades were deficient at defensive rebounding and protection in the paint.
This current group players allows for a lot of versatility in how to defend various teams.
Was about to write this - thanks for doing the work. I also like Exum on the boards, he always seems to snatch some boards out of the air. Could be a weapon against big teams as well as long as Kleber and Washington are hitting enough threes to kill a line-up with KAT and Gobert for example.
