Marco Belinelli

Like many players on this list, Marco Belinelli is stuck on a struggling team. The Atlanta Hawks aren’t going anywhere quick, and Belinelli has been one of the team’s lone bright spots of the season.

Problem is, a player like Belinelli doesn’t necessarily help the Hawks a ton. He’s the type of role player that will do wonders for a playoff team, though.

In 23 minutes per game this season, Belinelli is averaging 11 points per game on 37 percent from 3-point range. If any team is in need of a shooter, there might not be one better on the buyout market than Belinelli.
