NBA: Ranking The Top 7 Free Agent Shooting Guards
By Jack Jameson
6. Jamal Crawford, Los Angeles Clippers, Unrestricted
2015-16 Stats: 14.2 points, 2.3 assists, 1.8 rebounds, 40 FG%, 34 3PT%
The reigning Sixth Man of the Year is hitting free agency this summer. While he is 36 years old, Crawford proved he still has plenty in the tank last season, acting as a major weapon for the Los Angeles Clippers off the bench.
At this point in his career, teams know what they are going to get out of Crawford. He will be an elite scorer off the bench, who can handle the ball well and space the floor. In addition to scoring, Crawford can provide some distribution and some dazzling four point plays.
Crawford has openly said he wants to return to LA, “That’s my first priority, to get something worked out here,” and it is hard to see why LA wouldn’t want him back.
My best guess is Crawford returns to LA on a relatively short term deal to finish out his career.
