Career Earnings: $135,209,018

2. Gordon Hayward Player Option / Small Forward / 6-8 / Last team: Utah 22.2 ppg, 5.7 rpg The versatile forward will become a free agent right in the middle of his prime years. Keeping him in Utah will not come cheap.

Career Earnings: $118,552,969

Career Earnings: $10,276,530

9. Jeff Green Unrestricted / Small Forward / 6-9 / Last team: Orlando 9.6 ppg, 3.0 rpg His teams are typically better when he’s off the floor, which is kind of a head-scratchedr for a player with such obvious talent.

11. Shabazz Muhammad Restricted / Small Forward / 6-6 / Last team: Minnesota 8.3 ppg, 2.8 rpg Hard for him to get playing time on a team with so much talent at the wing. Nice scorer.
