We’ve got a solid core, so I don’t think we need to swing for the fences or take big risks this offseason.
Keep the starting 5 intact. Extend Aldridge.
All of the bench is expendable.
My keepers: Robinson, Freeland, Barton, and McCollum.
First option as trade/filler: Wright, Leonard, Claver, Crabbe
Gone: Williams, Watson
Assets:
Approx. 5 mil cap room
Approx. 2.5 mini-MLE
First priority is to pick up a backup point guard.
Top targets: Farmar & Brooks (both good a/t ratios and shot 38%+ from 3 last year)
Next priority is to pick up a backup big.
Top targets: Jordan Hill and Jeff Adrien (both young with solid rebounding numbers)
I would use Wright, Leonard, Claver and/or Crabbe as assets to acquire a late 1st (unlikely) or 2nd round pick.
Top targets:
- Jordan Adams, SG, UCLA (projected late 1st round. Probably out of our range)
- Jarnell Stokes, PF, Tennessee (projected mid 2nd round). Solid rebounder.
- DeAndre Kane, SG, Iowa St. (projected late 2nd round). Well balanced pts/ast/reb.
Nothing flashy, but then last summer wasn’t flashy and look where it got us.
