I'd have it as follows, don't care about how young some are:

Luka
Parker (as SG need, little stretch)
Giannis
Dirk
Jokic

Leaving Pau off is tough given the length of his career and accolades, though one could argue having Kobe help with championships can be moot here. Jokic is dominant for the position, not complimentary. No signs of slowing down and to me, a tougher era to win a championship.
I like your starting lineup. that being said, i think petrovic was a great choice - not many wing players and he absolutely would help balance the lineup with his shooting.

Another guy i kinda forgot about is Turkoglu - although it got me thinking does Turkey count as Europe or Asia? had to look it up lol and i guess it's sort of in the middle so i'd count him.

AK47 would be nice to put on the bench too as a defensive specialist.

Very big team with lots of length, somewhat lacking in high end athleticism except maybe Giannis and young Dirk! But wow the shooting (Dirk, petrovic, peja) and waves of bigs, dominant rebounding.
