That's fair. I think Mark moves his feet better than Ayton and Gobert, so I think he can have value on defense even if a team goes small. I think it's hard to actually play him off the floor, and that when it's happened it's because Duke's scheme and probably all his experience up until now makes him focus on protecting the paint (and thus give his man space outside), not because he can't stick with forwards on the outside. But tbh I'm speculating and not really basing that on anything substantive.
How unlikely is it for Mark to improve his range? In one season he's gone from 54% to 75% from the line, and his shots seem to mostly be swishes. Maybe instead of Ayton or Gobert, his comp should be someone like Evan Mobley.
