Dwyane Wade is an NBA legend and Bradley Beal will probably be a star, but with DeMar DeRozan at his best he’s without a question the top free agent at the shooting guard position.
POINT GUARDS / SHOOTING GUARDS / SMALL FORWARDS / POWER FORWARDS / CENTERS
|
Player Option / Shooting Guard / 6-7 / Team: Toronto
23.5 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 4.0 apg
The three-point shot is still not falling at a good rate, but he's playing the best basketball of his career this season. Likely to opt out and sign a max deal somewhere. |
|
2. Bradley Beal
Restricted / Shooting Guard / 6-5 / Team: Washington
17.4 ppg, 3.4 rpg
We were expecting a breakout season from Beal, but didn't happen. Concerns about his durability having missed 81 games in the last four years. The Wizards will have to pay top dollar to keep him in DC, though. |
|
3. Dwyane Wade
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-4 / Team: Miami
19.0 ppg, 4.1 rpg, 4.6 apg
Played at his usual All-Star level once again. Likely to re-sign and recruit for the Heat. |
|
Restricted / Shooting Guard / 6-4 / Team: LA Lakers
15.5 ppg, 4.0 rpg
Star potential or just a guy putting up nice numbers on a bad team? |
|
Restricted / Shooting Guard / 6-6 / Team: Orlando
15.4 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 2.7 apg
Had a really strong start of the season that he could not sustain. A capable shooter that can help a lot of teams. |
|
6. JR Smith
Player Option / Shooting Guard / 6-6 / Team: Cleveland
12.4 ppg, 2.8 rpg
You will love him and hate him the same game. Looks like a star sometimes, but no consistency. |
|
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-5 / Team: LA Clippers
14.2 ppg, 2.3 apg
The three-time Sixth Man of the Year is still bringing instant firepower off the bench. But how much left in the tank? |
|
8. Courtney Lee
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-5 / Team: Charlotte
9.6 ppg, 2.6 rpg
Has not played so well in the postseason, but would be a solid perimeter addition for many NBA teams. |
|
Player Option / Shooting Guard / 6-6 / Team: San Antonio
9.6 ppg, 3.1 apg
Looks rejuvenated this season in San Antonio, which makes us think this might not be his final year in the NBA. |
|
10. Arron Afflalo
Player Option / Shooting Guard / 6-5 / Team: New York
12.8 ppg, 3.7 rpg
Didn't finish the year on a strong note. The Knicks were perhaps showing him the door with those late-season benchings. |
|
11. Lance Stephenson
Team Option / Shooting Guard / 6-5 / Team: Memphis
8.3 ppg, 3.2 rpg
Indiana's Lance Stephenson was not seen in Charlotte or Los Angeles. Looked much better for a depleted Memphis team late in the season. |
|
12. Dion Waiters
Restricted / Shooting Guard / 6-4 / Team: Oklahoma City
9.8 ppg, 2.6 rpg
Has obviously talent, but doesn't have the highest basketball IQ in basketball. |
|
13. Eric Gordon
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-4 / Team: New Orleans
15.2 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 2.7 apg
The injury-prone Eric Gordon has not been able to live up to his huge contract, but he would be a serviceable scoring guard for many teams. |
|
14. Kevin Martin
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-7 / Team: San Antonio
9.3 ppg, 2.0 rpg
A very fine perimeter scorer in the NBA in the last decade. He's 33 already. |
|
15. Leandro Barbosa
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-3 / Team: Golden State
6.4 ppg, 1.7 rpg
Has good motor for his age. Interesting contributor off the bench for the Warriors. |
|
16. Gerald Henderson
Unrestricted / Shooting Guard / 6-5 / Team: Portland
8.7 ppg, 2.9 rpg
Could have shined brighter on a team where he was going to have playing time. |
