I'd definitely prefer Okposo.

How much of that difference in points is playing with Tavares? Hard to say. Put Backes on Tavares' RW and I think he'd rip it up too.
I think Backes can play RW. He's harder to play against and has a much more consistent effort level. He's quite physical and would give us that power forward RW.
I find Okloso underwhelming to the eye when I watch him. I think Backes is a more impactful player.
