The reason I am so high on Burks is it allows us to comfidently let Luka start at PG, and play to our strength: a lineup where everyone is SG height or taller, without sacrificing the playmaking of starting a pg with Luka. We all know Rick is obsessed with KP at the 5, and I really would not be surprised if we keep him there for the rest of the season, whether or not that is the right call. Burks can come off the bench too if we end up finding a center to start with porzi, and then we can close games with the deathlineup as necessary
As a last resort I wouldn't be opposed. That would be better than not making a move

It's always nice to have those to sweeten deals and who knows, maybe one of them turns out to be valuable like the GSW pick
For sure
Seems like there would be deals available where we take on money for next year and get an asset for our trouble
