Lauri would be coming in to be the starting 5, not starting with Jonas.
We'd still need a big body bench 5, as well as keeping Larry.

Why can’t we we turn Trey into a 5? Not as a starter but a closer. He has he height he just needs another 15 pounds and he is a center. Jonas and Larry will get the most minutes until crunch time and we also ramp up minutes for Trey at 5 during playoffs. It allows Herb to keep his minutes as well

The same line of thought applies. But now you need him to bring even more value since you're taking a little hit at rebounding. With Zion, BI, and CJ, he's not going to average much more points per game than what Jonas gives you now and not more than what Trey could give you with starter minutes.

If this was a team that didn't have CJ, then sure, make a big move and sacrifice your key young talent and go for a win now move. This current roster doesn't get THAT much better with Lauri on it.

Lauri is not a 5.
