Luka can then be the power point forward who plays the Jokic role on the team. You then can have at the VERY least, 1 good ball handler on the court with most of the time having 2.
Edit: Also, if MT was coming here there would be no need to bring Poeltl.

Could be a take your pick of one of Burke, MB, or SB if it’s any of the others, we need to talk about more compensation.

I feel like White and Brunson are a little redundant (Brunson is a better creator and White is a much better defender). Given the uncertainty around Brunson, I would be up for trading THJ+Brunson for a quality (possibly overpriced) 3&D player. That still leaves you with Powell/Maxi/Bullock/Green/Frank bench. Depending on the quality of the 3&D player (maybe you throw in a pick) that could be a contender.
EDIT: Actually as I think about it, this might be a situation where Grant makes some sense as the #2 option. Trade Brunson to NY for Kemba and two picks. Send THJ and NY pick for Grant. Now you have a starting lineup of Poeltl/Grant/DFS/Luka/White and all of your picks.
