Khris Middleton / Milwaukee (Player Option)
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports
Coming off an injury-plagued campaign, which will be of some concern to prospective suitors. When healthy, one of the best swingmen of the game who can score at a high level while also defending, creating and rebounding. Smooth off-the-dribble shooter.

Love him or hate him, there’s no doubt his tactics are effective. Besides his trash talking, he’s one of the best wing defenders in the league and a confident scorer, though sometimes he goes cold and will take shots you would rather he didn’t.

Josh Hart / New York (Player Option)
Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports
He won’t put up the stats of some of the players ahead of him on this list but he is certainly an impactful player, a tough defender and one of the best rebounding guards in the league. Decent spot-up shooting threat from three.

Bruce Brown / Denver (Player Option)
John Hefti-USA TODAY Sports
High-energy guard who has done a bit of everything in his career, including play small-ball center at his size. Will fight for every loose ball and can hit open three-pointers. Tenacious defender.

KJ Martin / Houston
Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports
Explosive swingman who is at his best as an off-ball slasher and transition threat. Capable defender though there is potential there for more.

Kelly Oubre / Charlotte
Jim Dedmon-USA TODAY Sports
Has been around the league for a good amount of time and remains what he is: an explosive athlete with inconsistent shooting ability and poor decision-making.

Matisse Thybulle / Portland (Restricted)
Rob Gray-USA TODAY Sports
A defender first and foremost who can guard a lot of different positions while also racking up steals and blocks. Not much of a threat on offense.

Torrey Craig / Phoenix
Joe Camporeale-USA TODAY Sports
Swingman who specializes in defense, playing with a lot of toughness on that end of the floor. Capable of hitting open threes but won’t give you much else on offense.

Cam Reddish / Portland (Restricted)
Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports
Already on his third team since being a Top 10 pick, time might be running out for him to show why he was drafted so highly. At his best, a three-level scorer but hasn’t been anywhere consistent enough in the NBA yet.

Not the player he was before the long injury layoff but probably still someone teams will gamble on for next season. An expert in getting smooth buckets off the dribble from the midrange and can also hit threes at a decent clip.

Winslow Townson-USA TODAY Sports
Not the athlete he once was, which has caused his impact and production to fall off. When he has it going, he’s a solid scorer who can get hot from three and score off the dribble with a high degree of difficulty.

Justise Winslow / Portland
Tricky player because he has shown promise as a versatile forward who can create for others and really defend, but he’s way too inconsistent on offense due to his poor low-post finishing and bad shooting marks.
