I agree with you, except on the part of what sins each one is. In my opinion they are:

Evelynn: Wrath. Fuck, she materializes hatred and anger in spikes. If she isn't the wrath, I am a hobbit.

Elise: Lust. Lust is all about deception and corruption. Many ancient catholic texts talk about how much the Lust is the most dangerous of the sins, due to how easily one can fall for it. Like the Lust, Elise takes the form of a very seductive woman in her cult, as a mean to bait people to feed her Spider God. While she looks really sexy, this but the surface of her true form.

Hecarim: Envy. Hecarim X Mordekaiser interactions can easily make the dear Centaur look like a Mordewannabe. Overall they have really similar roles among the army of the restless, they just do things differently. Since it seems Mordekaiser is older than Hecarim, perhaps he does what he does for pure admiration - or envy, at last.

Mordekaiser: Greed. He takes to serve him. Mordekaiser's Greed can easily be seen in his ability to chain the dead to his will to do his bidding. He is a general for the undead and maybe (since no one knows who leads them) their leader. The souls he takes makes his army stronger.

Yorick: Sloth. Yorick's chastity is the main reason why is he in his present state. He failed to complete his goal and for this reason he has to work forever - or for a really long time as he hopes, at least. It kinda reminds me of Dante's Purgatorio, as the slothful are forced into labor until they are cleansed from the sin.

Thresh: Gluttony. He takes merely because he wants to. Thresh doesn't actually NEED the Souls he "wards". He, differently from Mordekaiser, is taking souls for nothing but his own pleasure. While this could be seen as Lust, it is Gluttony. Gluttony isn't merely based in food but in the selfish act of taking what you have no need for AND it doesn't actually represent any value for you. Thresh doesn't plan in becoming a king or an emperor or a general or anything, he just wants more and more and more souls.

Karthus: Pride. I planned in giving Karthus the Sloth, since he is a suicidal and acedia was considered part of the Sloth, along the depression. However, since I associated it with Yorick for the reasons mentioned above, I am putting him under the Pride. Why? Because he was a man who did the outrageous act of relinquishing what he was for something else, Death. The Proud due to their selfishness are always acting without consideration and reflexion, only to achieve their goals. Besides, he rules the undead as their king, forcing the souls of those unafortunate enough to encounter the Lich to join his chorus and fight for him, both as zombies (1st lore) and enslaved souls (Defile).
