Young wing pipeline
Hugo Gonzalez and future flexibility stay off the table until camp answers the paint-pressure question.
Roster construction, targets, and deal logic grounded in the league data already inside the app.
Not yet. Tatum, White, Pritchard, and George already cover a lot of on-ball work. The more urgent question is whether this group can create enough paint pressure after finishing last season with only 41% of its shots in the paint. Use camp to test that first. If it remains a weakness, target a downhill guard without sacrificing the young wing pipeline.
A shortlist starts with a basketball need, not a name or an overall rating.
| Need | Priority | Evidence | Next action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paint pressure | High | Only 41% of Boston's 2025–26 attempts came in the paint | Scout downhill guards |
| Center reliability | Medium | Robinson's availability and minute ceiling remain variables | Evaluate through camp |
| Young wing growth | Hold | Gonzalez lineups were +11.9 per 100 possessions | Protect the development path |
The full workflow keeps outgoing value, incoming fit, and unresolved questions visible together.

A guard who bends the first line of defense without taking the ball away from Tatum and White.
