Well if you recall Salah was treated as a situational player as well, almost as much as Boban.
He would have a really big outstanding game only to barely play or not play at all the next game.
That's just Coaches decision. Carlisle wants the modern style more mobile, athletic and not-too-big 5 like Powell, WCS, Maxi, Johnson. KP at 5 with length, mobility, shooting, shot blocking of course probably means all is right with the world for the Dallas system.
Porzingis though can get banged up playing inside since he's a bit slight of frame so there's that downside. He has to stay healthy with banging at 5.
