Bolomboy looks ready for a chance from what I have seen. Here's a thought for ya'll. If Favors comes back into form or doesn't... does the versatility of Bolomboy, Diaw, and a draft pick make Favors expendable? It's not so much about who's the better player because that is obviously Favors. It's more about health and whether he will add to the team enough to justify his contract. We continue to be schooled by Athletic stretch 4s. Bolomboy looks like he can guard that player type. It's a spot we need to shore up before the playoffs. List of players who have lit us up from that shouldn't have:
Powell - Mavs
Tolliver - Kings
Kaminsky - Hornets (at least that first quarter)
Anderson - Rockets
etc.
That's just a position we can't defend. I would love to give Bolomboy a chance to come into a game where someone is lighting us up at that spot and shut it down. Favor's isn't a natural to do it, but he tends to curb those types when he is on the court. More than Gobert at least. But Bolomboy may just earn his role if he can be 'that guy'.
Also, Dante may benefit from more time in the DL. Last game he showed a pulse and some passion. But it may have been frustration more than passion because he hasn't been playing his game. Swap Bolomboy and Dante in the Deeeeeleeeee?
