Claxton is a superb perimeter defender (much better at it than Lively or Gafford), who also protects the rim. The synergy between a pairing of Claxton and Chet when the two of them play at PF and C should be obvious. I think they can do better than Claxton in terms of fit with the rest of their starting 5, but adding Claxton would be a huge improvement over their starting 5 from this season... and potentially open up a bigger role for Jalen Williams at SF, his natural position.
Wallace, SGA, Jalen, Claxton, Chet
They have so many ways to go... Markkanen, Avdija, Kuzma, Hendricks, Cam Johnson, Eason, etc, etc... and the picks to make any of these moves happen.
