He should be good for 15-20 minutes right out of the gate, imo. I think he’s the back up 4 on day 1.
I think Green was going to be the starter, even if Portland hadn’t matched.
Losing Thybulle might be a hit to the “trade THJ” crowd. I’m fine with moving him in the right deal, but if the season started today I think he’s first off the bench at the 2/3. And not for nothing, but I think that version of the team is better than the one with Thybulle on it.
If they already have a trade lined up for THJ that they like, it either needs to be for a 2/3 type or, if it’s for a center, they’re going to need to find an alternate plan from this Thybulle distraction. I’ve seen people suggesting Oubre. I’m not into that, but I suppose it’s possible.
