I realize his skillset is more so along the lines of a big wing, like Siakam or Kuzma than it is a traditional big, but very difficult for that type to be a first option in today's game.
Even Siakam, he kind of is, but his efficiency has plummeted in the role and they're really more of an ensemble cast.
What the Spurs need, is a combination of go-to scoring and playmaking, but the latter is slightly more pressing (White is the only young player who can make plays out of p-n-r). That's primarily why they should be looking to trade up and targeting Avdija, Hayes or Haliburton. That and 1.5 of the first two are international, so if by chance they become a star, they're far less likely to force their way out.
