I like your list but let me replace Bagley with Jonathan Isaac. Markkanen/Isaac are my absolute ideal realistic targets.
Don't get the Lauri love or the fit. He does not address any of our current needs. You can't play him to "protect" KP. He can't guard bigs you would want to avoid putting KP on, and he can't guard the rim in general. He will always be a negative on defense. Offensively he can't distribute and is not a particularly good offensive rebounder. He is a career average 3 point shooter and his career year last year may have been an outlier. Personally I would rather have Theis, especially for half the price.
