Also if we could swap BI out for someone like Lauri and move Trey into BI spot it would be interesting.


You want Markkanen playing Center?

Has he ever played Center full-time?

The Jazz are playing him almost on the wing or as a stretch 4. They started Collins and Kessler along with him last night. He can shoot and has size. But he's not a banger..

I was thinking Lauri to be more like a stretch 4 and we primarily play small ball. He shoots like 8 three point shots a game at an elite percentage. We could still bring a big off the bench and let Lauri play with a guy like JV. Lauri doesn’t have to have the ball. Also we may still suck on defense, but he would still add some size.

BI and Zion can’t both have the ball.

Could you imagine having CJ, Trey, and Lauri spreading the floor for Zion? All three of those guys are capable of taking it off the dribble to if someone does try to overly close out on them.

Those three shooters are shooting 9.2/22.7 @ 40.5%

At some point you need to make a move. Maybe BI would not be of value to the Utah Jazz though.
