Talks about a lineup of:

- Cooper Flagg
- Klay Thompson
- P.J. Washington
- Anthony Davis
- Dereck Lively II or Daniel Gafford

I'm not the biggest DLo fan, but if something like this actually happens, it slots the TX MLE guard as a backup.

Flagg           (DLo)           BWill       Irving
Thompson    Christie        Hardy
PJW             Martin          
Davis           Naji             OMax
Lively           Gafford        Powell

I've kind of envisioned the stopgap PG starting and holding down Kyrie's spot.  But, that might not be true if this comes to pass.  I suspect Christie closes (he was already doing that in front of Thompson last season some).  The question is who moves to the bench when Kyrie returns?  

One note on the Exum speculation.  BWill is not guaranteed.  So, absent a trade or eating a contract (not likely), Exum instead of BWill might be the path.
