An under the radar free agent will be Dallas' Al-Faroqu Aminu. Sked to visit NYK, BOS, POR, TOR & NOP, w/Mavs still in mix.

This makes sense given what Stevens saying about needing depth at the "swing" position. Really long and a good athlete, would give us something similar to what Crowder does.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Too similar to Crowder. One or the other. Not both.

Agreed, seems like a back-up option to Crowder or a depth option if Turner gets moved.

I like Aminu's versatility as a defender but he's a nothing on offense. I wouldn't want to spend much money for a guy who's that specific of a specialist.
