How do the games compare for our vertically gifted folks. Are Jake and Hamrighteous the shooters and sub for each other, and White and Booth the rebounders (not saying they can’t shoot) and sub for each other, and we need a 5 to guard to other teams mean big dude. I assume none of these guys would be in a traditional guard ball handling role.

I know I am oversimplifying positions and lineup combinations, but trying to understand who is similar to who.

I think coach is aiming to find a way to get the 3 and 4 spot to play similarly, and we need a knockout 2 and a true rim protector at 5

Boswell
Blank
White (for now)
Hummer
Blank

I’d imagine the 3, white, will be more similar to booty ball action that Marcus did, while the 4 will be what coach had wished Quincy was, with the ability to booty down as well.
