We continue with our tier 4, which features our valuable rotation pieces (young players) edition. To simplify this, these are young players that would be valuable rotation players for any team. None of these names are especially flashy but could be extremely valuable pieces to a playoff run.
The two names that stick out heading into the 2019-20 season, and players that could be in for big seasons, are Fred VanVleet and Domantas Sabonis. Each of these two players will have expanded roles on their current teams and will need to step up due to several circumstances.
Dejounte Murray is another interesting prospect and is coming off an injury that forced him to miss all of last season. It’s going to be interesting to see how he plays this season for the Spurs, and how it could set him up for a promising payday during the summer.
