18. Roy Hibbert (player option) | Indiana Pacers
Type: Unrestricted
2014-15 Season Stats: 10.6 PPG, 7.1 RPG
Potential Landing Spots: Portland Trail Blazers, New York Knicks, Milwaukee Bucks
Roy Hibbert was a huge part of Indiana’s present and future but seems to have fallen out of favour. Larry Bird said after exit interviews that he wants to run a more uptempo team next season which essentially forces Hibbert to pick up his player option and forces him out the door.
There will be a long line of teams excited about the chance to add a talented shot blocker and rebounder. Look for Portland to jump into the mix and try to sign him again.
