Some pretty ugly misses here:

You could also try and project that his looks around the basket will become much easier with a guy like Luka around. Powell, Lively, Jordan, Wood, all had close to career highs close or above 70% shooting at the rim (Powell: 77.8%* Lively: 83.0%* Jordan: 70.7% Wood: 69.7%) with Luka feeding them.
Hard to imagine a burly guy like Stewart not benefitting from that.
