As a primary wing creator, Osman immediately had Canton running actions through him at the elbows and around the perimeter rather than simply using him as a defensive-energy piece. His lone G League appearance produced 21 points, eight rebounds, four steals and two blocks, with independent coverage specifically noting his expanded offensive responsibility.

Swanigan functioned as a physical interior hub, combining second-chance work with passing from the frontcourt. His Canton stint came while Portland was developing a 2017 first-round pick, and the assignment gave him 12 starts in 14 games while he posted double-digit rebounding production.

The stretch-four role suited Jerrett’s offensive skill set, with his 5.1 three-point attempts per game forcing opposing bigs away from the paint while he still supplied weak-side rim protection. A season-high 29 points and 11 rebounds late in the season illustrated how Canton could lean on his scoring when its frontcourt was short-handed. Charge Streak Snapped OurSports Central |

Williams filled the backup ball-handler role, keeping the offense organized in shorter stretches rather than carrying a major scoring burden.
