Would be decent depth. I wouldn't want him to have a major role but he could play the 4 if Tubelis needs a breather.

Just don't want him throwing up 3's. We have plenty of shooters. Arizona needs a rebounder rhat can also defend the post (when Koloko and Tubelis are on the bench).

I hope Aiken comes here. He could be a small ball 4, plays defense, can hit the 3 and
rebounds the ball. Maybe he starts at the 4 with azulous  at the 5.
Unless Lloyd wants a big lineup with koloko and azulous  out there.

That list covers a lot of ground.

I read Lloyd has met with Miller  maybe he talked some sense into Lloyd   recruiting  players since  he did not  try to keep  aiken the first time.

Or Lloyd had a change of heart.
Aiken may very well go somewhere  else.

I do not mind the notion of bringing in another 6'6 - 6'8 wing.
The only thing I am hoping is that Aiken is coming in to be more of a role player instead of a high-impact player.
We have enough bodies that SHOULD fill that role in Kriisa/Tubelis/Mathurin/Terry and adding Larsson for the outside shooting, Ballo for inside depth, and then Kerr for guard depth off the bench.
Another battle-tested veteran to come in and somewhat balance out how young and unproven we are at most positions.
