ACL injuries are unpredictable and vary from player to player. I've personally seen one of my players come back in 4 months and be the same player as pre-injury. I've also seen players come back to soon and end up getting re-injured. And I've seen players that literally needed 9-12 months before resuming normal activities. Adrian Peterson won an MVP just 9 months removed from his. I'm not going to pigeon hole Zach into any expectation, but based on what I'm hearing he's going to be pretty damn ready to go by opening night.

PJ Tucker (31), Sefolosha (32) and Tony Allen (35) are free agents. Any of these guys could be a great addition for their defensive mentality and their veteran presence and might come cheaply given their age. Signing one of them could allow Wiggins to move to the 2. I'd also like to sign Gibson if we can sign him for a reasonable deal and move Dieng to second unit to play with Zach. I'd also consider Bogut if he passes a physical as a way to improve our interior defense assuming he'd come cheaply. I also hope we can draft Isaac and if he's not available Bridges.
Ricky, Wiggins, Tucker/Sefolosha/Allen, KAT, Gibson with a second unit backcourt of Tyus/Dunn/Zach at guards Isaac/Belly/(Casspi?/Rush?/Bazz?) at forwards and Dieng (Bogut?/Aldrich?).
Incoming: Gibson and one of Tucker/Allen/Sefolosha and Isaac. Add another big for depth assuming we lose both Hill and Payne (Bogut/Wilie Reed/Ben Bentil are some I'd consider). Replace any shooters we lose.
Outgoing: Pekovic, Hill, Payne, and 1-3 of the following: Bazz, Rush, Casspi.
