I don't think that's right. Lou is probably going to be a better scorer. But I doubt very much she is ready to play our D, and Nika is practically the spirit of our team D. Geno has already joked about this a couple times -- that we are now a great shooting team, but may need to win some games 100-95. I suspect he was referring to Lou, which would suggest he means to play her a lot, maybe >20 mins/g. The wild card is Aubrey (and maybe Ayanna) who may play some minutes at the 3 and some at the 4. Geno has liked using her that way in the past.

I also don't think Nika can really be Azzi's backup in the simple sense, since I doubt very much Geno will have Azzi playing PG for entire games. I also don't think Caroline or Lou can really do much work at PG. They are much more cut out for the 2-3 mold.

I think it's much more likely that Nika will start at PG, play 20-25 mins/g, and Azzi will shift over from SG to cover those duties for part of the game. The only worrisome thing for me is that Azzi may have to play 35 mins/g, and that seems like a lot for someone recovering from a foot injury.
