19. Luol Deng, Unrestricted
Luol Deng had an outstanding performance against the Charlotte Hornets in the first round of the playoffs. Then, he got injured and struggled to remain active in the second round against the Raptors.
Nevertheless, Deng is going to be a worthy signing for any team this summer. He still has plenty left in the tank and is the ideal stretch-four in today’s NBA – that was well evident during the second half of the season (when Chris Bosh was lost to injury).
I think the Minnesota Timberwolves, Golden State Warriors and others will likely be in on Deng this summer, but I expect him to find a way to remain in Miami. For at least one more season.
Prediction: Signs two-year deal in Miami
Next: No. 18
