14. Richard Jefferson

Richard Jefferson isn’t played the near 20 minutes per game that he did last season with the Cleveland Cavaliers, but he’s a true professional and has seen it all in the NBA playoffs. He might not be playing big minutes but he’s still a valuable component of the Cavs’ limited depth.

In limited time this playoffs, Jefferson is averaging just two points on 33 percent shooting from the field. He likely won’t be seeing the court much, if any, against the Warriors, but he could offer them an extra wing option in case of injury or fatigue.

Jefferson isn’t a huge part of Cleveland’s fire power, but having him on the bench is a luxury this time of the year.
