Ed Davis can eat the backup 4 minutes & Aminu/Harkless also play at the 4.

Nurkic hasn't been able to finish at the rim since his knee injury & he is going to be asked to finish on PnRs like Plumlee. He's best served as a backup who can give you 15-20 minutes like Aron Baynes until he proves otherwise.
