9. P.J. Tucker, Houston Rockets
Stats: 5.9 PPG, 5.5 RPG
P.J. Tucker is a good defender and plays very physical on the floor. However, it’s his versatility on offense that gets him on this list.
Tucker is not the greatest shooter on his team, led alone the NBA, but he can hit a corner 3 at a consistent rate. Tucker’s numbers don’t tell the entire story, but when he’s hitting his open shots, Houston’s offense is nearly unstoppable.
Come playoff time, Tucker will be a name to keep an eye on. If the Rockets are going to make a deep run, he’s going to be one of the players that will need to step up.
