Foul trouble is going to be what dictates playing time for the bigs, if you ask me.

Yes, yes he did. But that doesn't mean he will be ready in is (RS) freshman year.
Judging on Self's history we will only run 4 bigs, and one of those will get "Aldrich freshman year minutes" (5 or so per game, depending on foul trouble). IMHO its pretty clear those 4 will be Embiid, Ellis, Black, and Traylor.
Lucas is insurance if Embiid and Ellis both have monster years and bolt to the NBA, leaving us with only Traylor as a sure thing next year.
