Hopefully he can play the 5

Hopefully he has a signature dunk called Thor’s hammer. Seems probable since he’s a Thor.

Yeah that market can be rather thin though. Maybe 1-2 good GT bigs out there every year

Depends if you're looking for a starter quality guy or just depth. Only guy I'd slot in as an Auburn hoops quality starter from last years market is Blackshear.

We should just play 5 guards.

But overall I see your point. It’s much more likely to get a quality guard in the transfer portal than a quality big.

Only if that stretch 4 is a guard.

From just watching some JT Thor highlights, he seems to like hanging around the perimeter on offense for sure. I don't mind that if he can protect the rim but I'm not seeing that either.

You've got to be able to defend the rim though.. unless your guards are all absolutely elite defenders or if your 5 is a Draymond type.

He plays a lot smaller than his height and rather be facing the basket than have his back to it. He's actually pretty darn good off the bounce.
Of course his team has the luxury of sticking him there. He could always be retrained to be a 5.
Kai Sotto is the 5 we need!
