I think Wenyen Gabriel is a similar player who had better advances stats last season as a rotation player for the Lakers. He's currently a free agent and I think would be a better choice than Precious. He'd also be free.
Like you, I am still concerned about our rebounding. That's probably our greatest flaw. That and Luka's lingering leg injuries.
Looking at Gabriel's advanced stats now. I really liked him every time I saw a LAL game last year.
I consider Luka a SF, so we're more than ok there. None of our guards (I consider THJ & J.Green guards) can rebound well, Kyrie being our best. Powell and Maxi are terrible rebounders. Hopefully Lively will be a rebounding monster. GWill is below average.
