I think KP at the 5 will yield the best results in the long term.
His best +/- lineup was when he was the 5 with Brunson/THJ/DFS/Kleber/KP. It was +23.6 with 81 minutes played. The 3rd most played lineup.
I think KP is versatile enough to be played at the 4 or 5, and I won't object that him playing some 4 will be good for the offense for variation (and as long as he's next to the right center!). But overall, KP is most effective at the 5, and with a fully healthy team I believe that will yield the most results.
