Hi squad. I know that everyone, including myself, loves Richaun, even with the impending return of Bagley. But who would you rather ROS - Richaun or Thomas Bryant?
Bryant could retain Top-45 value if his blocks get back on track, and has a load of upside with how young he is on a struggling team. I’d lean the Bryant side but Richuan will likely keep a similar role even w/ MB coming back. He’s practically pried almost all of the center mins off of Dedmond.
Bryant has gotten unexpected competition from Wagner for center minutes and isn't running away with the position like we all thought he would. Meanwhile Holmes IS running away with the center minutes in SAC and is playing much better than Bryant with similar minutes. I'm inclined to lean towards Holmes, but would like to see how Walton plans to use him once Bagley is back before I definitively plant my flag in that.
Could be pretty close, actually. Baby lean to Bryant since we at least know the guy coming for his minutes isn't one of the team's top draft picks like Bagley is... but Holmes should keep MOST of his center mins. Most.
