His full allowable extension is too high for that role. He's probably made himself some money this season, but there isn't a team out there that is going to pay over the MLE for him.
Unfortunately, PJ next to Flagg is even worse than Marshall next to Flagg. I don't think we have our answer at this position yet. Both PJ and Marshall are nice players to have and I'd probably like to have one of them off of my bench longer term. But neither is critical to what needs to be built around Flagg.
Yeah, if you look at who Flagg has done best on the court with, the top is the centers (Lively and Powell) then PG (Williams and Nembhard) then shooters (Klay and Max) and then at the bottom its the limited shooting forwards (Naji and PJ). Just looking at that would suggest they need to surround him with a center, a PG and shooters. You can make an argument for one of Naji and PJ for depth, but probably need to send one out for a better fit.
