No. 2: Andray Blatche
The 28-year-old’s best season came with the Washington Wizards in 2010-11, when he posted 16.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per contest. Blatche was still a formidable presence for the Brooklyn Nets last year, averaging 11.2 points and 5.3 rebounds over 22.2 minutes a game. The 6’11” center also put up some huge numbers in the recent FIBA World Cup of Basketball–playing for the Philippines.
No. 1: Eric Bledsoe
Bledsoe had a breakout season with the Phoenix Suns in 2013-14, averaging 17.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game. A restricted free agent, the point guard feels he is worthy of a max deal (five years, $85 million). Phoenix offered him four years and $48 million a long time ago, and neither side has budged since.
