I think "our" center targets next summer you can dial down on 2-3 names:

re-signing DJ (obv)

Vuje
(career season, little bit younger than DJ, stretch-5 etc), would be as example a better fit with Randle. At offense, Rick would love him, even with limited roll skills.

a wild card could be Thomas Bryant, if he keeps on playing like this and we dont want/cant sign DJ/Vuce.

Signing Randle as a smallball-5 (and no DJ/Vuce) is also an option, of course.

With re-signing DJ, there is of course this micro Durant pipedream (they are best buddies). Him selling Durant on Luka and the franchise.

Otherwise Randle should be one of the best and most realistic options:
Durant: lot of Knicks rumors
Porz: RFA, Knicks wont let him go
Kawhi: Woj pretty much say allready the Clippers are a done deal
Klay: stays...
Butler: dont think they wanna go down drama road
Cousins: same, a combination of the Rondo and Wes issues (character and achilles)
Harris: pretty much another Barnes
Middleton: Bucks blew a 1st to clear out salary, they are ready to PAY him
Bledsoe: Could be an option, if everything else fails. Future 3-Guard-Lineup.

So yeah, i think we are looking at something like DJ/Vuce+Randle. And depending on Barnes either more cap in 2019 or in 2020.
