Or Kris Dunn, or THT. I think bringing Sexton off the bench (but for significant minutes) makes a lot of sense.
I'f be surprised if Dunn is more than a stop gap that washes out again, He is in fact the defensive guard off the bench for tough match ups. Even if THT gets no offers and opts in, he probably won't be on ball much at all besides playing freak closer when his shot is falling all day in warm ups. Well not at all like he was when we were in tank mode down the stretch. Unless we are tanking next season, which would not be completely irrational, but I think this org is hungry to push forward with what we have in the Finnisher and not start over. lol
If Sexton is not considered good enough,or isn't healthy enough to be a serviceable floor general next season, he will be the 6th man scorer he was turning into in Cleveland, which is probably not what he wants if we are taking two steps back.
But I guess if we are winning with a veteran pg, that is clearly better than him.He will take it as a challenge to earn minutes and probably end up in the starting 5 next to the veteran 1.
I just think this org will only be interested in wing playmaking defenders to do just that; defend the perimeter and slash off ball, but are able to make the right reads and passes as secondary ball handlers, which can be found in the later half of the first round or at 16 for sure. To pick a prospect with those strengths that cannot space the floor at all, at 9th and plug them in as a starting NBA pg, has tank written all over it, and the Finnisher punching his ticket out.
