Otto Porter
Ideal destination: Brooklyn Nets
The Nets are building up a stable of young talent. They also have cap space to burn. They will have enough space to offer max contracts to restricted free agents. Signing Porter on a max contract is definitely overpay in a vacuum. However, when you look at the lack of talented wings in the league at the moment, it looks less ridiculous.
A current core of Lin, Porter, and Lopez is intriguing and will be somewhat competitive. Add in the Nets’ young players like Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Caris LeVert and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
With the Nets surrendering their next couple of first-round picks, Brooklyn will need to take flyers on young players with upside. The Nets would put Porter in a place to live up to his max contract.
