Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Chicagojk]

I think if PJ sticks around Morez' only avenue to starting will be at the 5. I personally think Morez is going to prove a lot more raw his first year on both offense and defense than people think. Loads of talent there, but I think it's really unrefined in almost all aspects, and will take a while to come together. PJ is the locked on starter at the 4 if he stays for me.

I think it might be likely that Morez gets less minutes to begin the year and his minutes grow as the year goes on.  Maybe a trade during the season frees up the minutes down the stretch.  Wasn't CMB like that with Toronto?   Right now there is a minutes crunch at the 4 (I prefer Morez to play more 4 to start his career).   Minutes could be available at the 5, but we will see.    Of course a trade(s) could still be coming, so we will see.
