31. Gabe Vincent (unrestricted)
After a sensational postseason run with the Miami Heat that led them to the NBA Finals, Gabe Vincent will be heading into free agency as one of the most sought-after point guards. At 27 years old, it’s likely that Vincent will be looking to get the first real payday of his career in the Association. That could make his market somewhat difficult to predict heading into the summer.
Nevertheless, the overwhelming expectation is that there will be plenty of suitors for Vincent. Especially those teams with money to spend that also have a need for the point guard position. The big question is whether the Miami Heat will be interested in bringing him back. If they are, you’d have to imagine there’s a good chance he’ll be back in Miami.
That said, their aspirations for a star could complicate the possibility of the team re-signing Vincent. Short of the Heat acquiring a star that could limit their spending, I predict that Vincent will be back in a Heat uniform next season. As long as he doesn’t get an outrageous offer from another team, the Heat will bring Vincent back under those circumstances.
Prediction: Miami Heat
