Malik landed in a dreaded situation in Denver though. Poeltl is stuck behind Jonas Valanciunas who is locked in for a few more years, and while Jakob could outplay Lucas Noguiera for backup center minutes in time, hes not a defensive x-factor like Biyombo was to push Jonas to the bench for end of game minutes.
