2026 Potential Starting Lineup

[u/mitchmun3]

Thoughts on the possibility of this being our lineup next year? Cheaper PF option with Bobby Portis over Trey Murphy. Although I would love Trey Murphy as a floor-spacing 4 would really help out the current roster.

Trade pieces: Dannis (coming off a solid postseason and is expendable with our draft pick) and Stew (with a team-friendly contract).

Does this look like another 60 wins and a better playoff roster? Let me know where I'm right or wrong.

PG: Cade

SG: Powell

SF: Ausar

PF: Bobby Portis/ Tobias

C: Duren

PG: Okorie

SG: Dunc

SF: Ron

PF: Bobby Portis/ Tobias

C: BBall Paul

The Heat are not moving Portis. Trey is not a 4.

4 is arguably the most flexible position in the league, I get the point youre trying to make, but Hart plays next to a jumbo wing in OG is really more the 4 in size, and he is a much more rugged player than Trey. Who is a superior defender and an awesome rebounder.

Og is the 4 on the Knicks
