Above you have: SGA, Mitchell, P George (he's not really a SG tho), Booker, Harden, Bane, D White, Jrue, Beal
Dinwiddie
Below are: Clarkson, Wagner, Lavine, Oubre, Heurter, DeJounte, Klay, Josh Green! , Herro, Monk, Kispert
Interesting that you label him as a SG. Maybe that is what the issue is? He is really being asked to be a lead guard for portions of the game. He is being asked to play a difficult role...it is almost two different roles. Role 1 is to play next to Luka where you may go two minutes without touching the ball, but when you do touch it you need to take advantage of all the attention on Luka. Role 2 is to lead the offense and be productive as the lead guy in the non Luka minutes. It is a tough role. Jalen grew to be very good at it.
So maybe the answer is to eventually find a lead creator to pair with Dinwiddie. Ideally he would be a bigger player (taller than 6'6 would be ideal). Although this player would also need to be able to handle dual rules: with and without Luka on the floor.
