Kenny Thomas for a Bag of Chips

[Kings113]

No it doesn't. If so, the Wiz are just incredibly weird. Darius is a solid offensive player that hustles. He's unathletic, not mobile, not a presence on the boards.

Then with KT, he's tough, mobile, athletic, a good rebounder, hustles. From what I've read, the Wiz want more mobile players up front who aren't average/bad on offense - Haywood/Etan/Ruffin fit that (not both areas for all three though).

Yes, of course they can play Jamison at the 4. Even though he's more of a three, which is obvious. But under the Wiz situation, KT would be a better fit overall.

KT and Darius' similarities are that they hustle (though KT has more advantage there) and they're both tweeners. Skills-wise? different.

I haven't read who'll be starting at PF for them anyways.

You won't find many people who'll argue that Kenny (mistakenly put Darius) is the better talent. We see it, I'm sure upper level scouts see it. And even then Wahsington still went and signed Darius to a big contract (big as in relative to his talent). It's not like there hasn't been a precedent with a Kenny/Darius rotation. It happened here, and with a similar system. Kenny fought for the starting spot, and Darius flounder trying to match him off the bench. Why would a GM go out of his way to recreate that rotation again after it failed so spectacularly.
