I’m gonna give a negative Nancy response… Its a bad year for free agents and your overpaying or risking a prima donna with almost everyone.
It really feels like a year where the best you can do is solid pickups. (Like for instance Gabe Vincent)
Besides the obvious picks (Westbrook, Draymond), I’d avoid Kyrie and Harden because they’re definitely not worth the price they’re asking and definitely will butcher a team’s cap space while either not playing or underdelivering.
As for role players, Will Barton is completely washed at this point. Considering all that has happened this past season, I really wouldn’t try my chances with Dillon Brooks. I don’t think Kendrick Nunn will ever be his old self at this point.
Even though I’ve seen a lot of people back on Reddit hate on D’Angelo Russell, I’d say if you can get him for a reasonable amount, do it, because he really did contribute on the Lakers for the small stretch prior to the playoffs.
DLo and Westbrook are the only 2 players that I see that most teams should avoid.
Draymond
for real he’s not worth the hassle
