Should we check out Julian Reese?

Not sure exactly how roster management works especially with two-way contracts or whatever but after any trade I'm looking at the scraps to see if there's anybody worth trying to scoop up. Julian Reese (brother of Jalen Duren's ex) was filler in the Peyton Watson trade and immediately waived by Denver. He was an undrafted 23 year old rookie who played essentially the last 13 games for the wizards last year and averaged a double double making 63 of 119 shots (no threes). Is he worth a two-way? Seems like he is an undersized big who hustles and gets boards, but maybe also could feast on the shots Cade creates in a backup center role when people are injured. Could possibly develop into a long term backup big.

Thoughts?

Who is the ideal player to add to our core if it didn’t have to be realistic?

In this scenario we can just add any player in the league to our team long term, contracts don’t matter and we don’t have to give up anything for him. I’m calling our core Cade, Thompson, and Duren. I’m leaving Holland out because I don’t think he’s done enough to prove he’ll be a long term starter. I think the obvious answer is Ant, he is a great shooter, can push Cade off the ball for stretches, and defensively we’d probly have the best 1-3 in the league. Any other options?

Edit: I’m dumb lol the answer is actually obviously Wemby, we probly would trade or just not extend Duren if this somehow happened but I bet they could play together too
