Wolves Depth Chart

[Q-is-here]

Absent any trades between now and July 6, this is our roster:

1. LaMelo
2. Edwards
3. TSJ
4. Jaden
5. Rudy
6. Ayo
7. Beringer
8. Green
9. Clark
10. Evans
11. Bones
12. Donte (inactive)

If TSJ is the player we’ve seen a number of times in the playoffs, he’ll be our Jalen Williams at SF and this roster can work. But I’m still expecting the Wolves to acquire a rotation PF via the $6M MLE or a Green trade. Either way, I’d like to see Finch run a 10-man rotation.

Based on what we know of his skill set, I don't see any merit to TJ starting. He's best with the ball in his hands, playing from the top of the floor; that's not happening if he's sharing the floor with Ball and Ant most of the time.
Maybe he's able to add to his game with a reliable 3 pointer and good defense, which isn't out of the realm of possibility. However, for what it's worth, I think he's best as the first one of the bench for Ball, and I'd have Ayo start.
If not that then, to be honest I don't really see any issue with starting Green as a 3 and D specialist, even if Ayo outpaces him in minutes.

Yeah, in the absence of any other moves (highly unlikely given Connelly's track record, LOL), I'd tell Clark and Green to compete in camp and pre-season for the open starter's spot. Green would probably win it, but hey, let them fight it out. It would be one of those classic moves where you start a bench player and he plays bench-like minutes, with Ayo coming off the bench and playing starter-like minutes.

That makes a lot of sense to me. But as you say, something else is sure to happen.

I will say tho that I don't feel like they need to force a Green trade and I could see a lot of sense in holding him until the deadline and see if you can build up his value more
