7. Kent Bazemore, Atlanta Hawks, Unrestricted
2015-16 Stats: 11.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 44 FG%, 36 3PT%
After DeMarre Carroll departed for the “The 6”, Kent Bazemore was called upon to fill the hole at starting small forward for the Atlanta Hawks. Bazemore managed to fill Carroll’s role admirably and was a solid two-way player for the Atlanta Hawks.
After being known mostly for his over the top bench celebrations early in his career, Bazemore has found his role in the NBA. Bazemore can play either wing position, lining up at shooting guard 74 percent of the time in 2014-15, and small forward 79 percent last season. Early in his career, Bazemore spent some time at the point, but he is more suited playing off the ball.
Bazemore has said he wants to return to Atlanta, but also expect the New Orleans Pelicans to pursue Bazemore as one of his biggest fans. Keep in mind: former Hawks GM Danny Ferry has joined the Pelicans team as an advisor.
