G - JRich/THJ/Brunson or Burke (when going small)
F - DFS/Kleber (when going big)
And then you factor in that the team's best player Luka is also essentially a G/F that plays PG. I don't see how Bane or Bey would have gotten minutes either.
Have to disagree. You just mentioned 6 guys for 4 spots. There were minutes to be had if they were ready. And they would of had an extended tryout while half the team was out with Covid (assuming they didn't get exposed as well). Green got a lot of minutes during that time, but he clearly was not ready. Those two were more prepared to contribute immediately. It still kills me that we were so close to Bey and Bane, and I really am confused why we got three projects in a year where projects would have little pathway to develop this year.
