Honorable mentions

Serge Ibaka – Serge Ibaka is likely a player that is going to receive some interest if he hits the buyout market heading into the final few weeks of the regular season. And after being traded to the Indiana Pacers, I have a hard time believing that he’s a player that the team is going to keep on the roster moving forward.

He’s a player that could offer some frontcourt depth for a playoff team looking for some.

Danny Green – Danny Green is another player that hasn’t seen the floor much during the season and most of that was due to injury, but he’s a veteran 3-and-D player that could perhaps catch onto a playoff team during the second half of the season.

That’s of course is if he’s bought out by the Houston Rockets.
