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.
Eek, how could I forget Wallace. Ya, sliding Chet and JWill one position IMO makes for both of them to be in their natural position. Wasn't Giddy playing point for Australia? Then, all the possibilities you list. They are insanely setup for an amazing roster. They're such a well run organization. Look at the 2022 draft. If redrafted, Chet and JWill would both go in the top 3.
