They aren’t installing a new system, on a short offseason, with a coach hired 2 months ago

Ingram and Zo are only 23 (NAW is 22), Zion is 20. These guys development take precedent. They’re still getting acclimated. Bledsoe and Adams have been here one month. Hart has to play due to wing depth. It’s tough to draw minutes for the young guys right now. This is basically preseason games

They need to decide if Ball, Hart, Bledsoe are longer term pieces first and foremost. That’ll dictate what happens with NAW and Kira

In fairness though, getting an idea of what you have with NAW and Kira would and should help dictate what to do with those other 3 guys, so ideally you have some info on NAW/Kira to influence those decisions.

We have time to get there, but for the sake of discussion, I'd hate to have to make decisions on those 3 guys and still have no idea what we have in the young guys.

we aren't the only team that hired a new coach.

This right here is probably the best reasoning i've seen. But i would counter it with, what if NAW or Kira appear to be just as good or a better fit, making it even more clear that maybe you should be looking to move someone before the deadline.
