Warriors grab it quickly! After completing the first wave of signing and signing of the Freedom and Trading Market, the US media "bleacherreport" selected the remaining seven cheap reinforcement targets in the Freedom market at the right time, among which Paul beat Westbrook and ranked first. The selection criteria for this list of US media "BF" is not a single player's big name, but to meet the premise of "cheap".

Therefore, players like Kumingga, Gidey, Brogdon, and Horford who can get large contracts of tens of millions are not on the list, and most of the selected players are worth about a veteran's basic salary.

The Warriors are the only team that has not completed any reinforcement so far in the offseason, and they need to seize the time and opportunity to strengthen. According to Warriors reporter Marc Grandi, the Warriors will not offer contracts higher than the veteran's basic salary before solving the Kumingga problem, and these players are completely within the scope of the investigation.

7th place: Ses Curry

As Curry's younger brother, Curry is also a sharpshooter, and he shot the league's first 45.6% three-point shooting percentage in the 24-25 season.

However, he is a simple shooter, lacks organizational ability, is very short, and is easily restricted on the defensive end. He is about to turn 35 years old.

Therefore, the market conditions are not good, but for some teams that urgently need to improve their shooting, it is still a good choice to let Curry play a role player who averages about 10 minutes per game.

No. 6: Burks

Burks is another shooter worth paying attention to. Although the output is not high enough, its efficiency is also trustworthy.

Especially after Butler was traded, he started 14 games with the Heat, shooting 46.7% of three-pointers, and averaged 11 points and 3 rebounds per game.

Although not an elite defender, it will at least not become a shortcoming and hopes to become a qualified number 2 and 3 rotation.

Fifth place: Boston II, 23, seized the opportunity after the Pelicans suffered an injury last season, and scored a comprehensive performance of 13.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.6 steals per game.

Therefore, for some rebuilding teams, it is a good choice and still has certain training value.

4th place: Kofi

After George left 24-25, Kofi played well with the Clippers, averaging 24.3 minutes per game and 9.7 points per game, and both hit a career high, while shooting 40.9% of three-point shooting percentage.

Especially in the 13 games that started, Kofi averaged 12.8 points per game and shot 43.4% from three-pointers.

For some teams with multiple ball holders, Coffey is a good choice for out-of-ball space points, and he also knows how to play a stable role in a successful team.

3rd place: Boucher

Center players are very popular in the free market this summer, and most high-quality centers have found their next home, which makes Boucher a hot target for some teams.

Because he is a space-based insider that meets the requirements of the small ball era, he averaged 17.2 minutes per game in the 24-25 season and scored 10 points and 4.5 rebounds, with a three-point shooting percentage of 36.3%.

However, his football dealership is relatively limited, which is the main reason why he has never found his next player.

Second place: Westbrook

Westbrook averaged 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.4 steals per game, playing the role of the actual sixth man.

looks like he has a poor three-point shooting, with an overall shooting percentage of only 26.6%, but he hits 48.2% from the three-point shooting percentage in the right corner.

If he is willing to accept a contract with a veteran's basic salary, I believe there will be a large number of competitive teams who want to get him.

No. 1: Paul

The top position belongs to Paul. His upper limit is currently not as good as Westbrook, but his lower limit and stability are far higher than Westbrook.

This is very important for competitive teams. After all, Westbrook or Paul can only play role players during this period of his career.

According to the latest report by Forbes Sports reporter Evan Sidery, the market will usher in a wave of veteran signing craze, and Paul is discussing reunion with the Clippers.
