If we trade Simons, who takes over our bench scoring?

There?s been a lot of talk about how Simons will eventually be dealt when the right deal comes. We?ve heard names like Zubac, Claxton, etc. But once we get rid of him, who?s gonna replace his scoring? I think his bench scoring is being underrated in this little win streak that we have.

Depends what we get back and when the trade happens.  If it is at the deadline and Tatum is close to a return, then Pritchard should move back to a 6th man role.  I assume we would get back someone who can play in the rotation at any rate.  If there is a playable wing, probably would move Hauser or that wing to the starting lineup and Pritchard to the 6th man.

In theory someone like Queta probably also goes back to the bench, I know he's not a prolific scorer but he is averaging 10+ a game. Then Tatum comes back and maybe PP goes to the bench if they add another cheap guard via the trade or buyout.
