small Tim Hardaway Dallas Mavericks SF |
| Although Porzingis has been trying to maintain stability last season, Hardaway and Doncic have become the most effective second choice in Dallas. His three-pointers making the playoffs at the end of the season are critical to the Mavericks' success, and they thank him with a new contract worth $72 million. After dividing time between the bench and the starting lineup last season, Hardaway should be the undisputed starting shooting guard second only to Doncic in the backcourt. - Jasmine Winter Biche | |

Harrison Barnes Sacramento Kings |
| Barnes has faded out of the spotlight from his glorious years in the Golden State Warriors,But he is still as strong as usual. He only knows how to play and stay in his lane; a low-usage scorer, he is proficient in the advantages of modern shooting options. According to Cleaning the Glass data, last season, 75% of Barnes' shooting attempts came from three-pointers or the basket. Shooting 25% of the shots from short mid-range (4-14 feet), you end up with only 1% of Barnes' non-junk time shots from the terrifying mid-to-long range. It's no wonder that last season he scored a career high in every field goal score and effective field goal percentage. Considering his multiple defenses, Barnes's name always appears in trading rumors for a reason. He will adapt and help any competitors. - Brad Botkin | |

Danny Green Philadelphia 76ers SF |
| Green is at the stage of his career, he probably shouldn’t be the main defender against Treyang in a playoff series, but for a competitive team In general, he is still important enough that without him, the team would collapse. If every so-called 3D player is as good at cutting in and helping defense as Green ,Then many teams will make more sense. - James Herbert | |

Li Qiaoen Holmes Sacramento C |
| Holmes has not received the attention he deserves in the past few seasons, mainly because he played for the Kings.

D'Angelo Russell Minnesota Timberwolves PG |
| In most cases,Do you know what Russell will get: a talented and well-used scorer and organizer, he almost never gets into the basket completely, and may have too many mid-range jumpers, and at the same time the worst One of the defenders. alliance. The question is whether the sum of Russell and Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards can exceed the sum of his own personal components. Relatively speaking, in the six-week sample at the end of last season, there is ample evidence that these three can succeed together. At that time, the Wolves added 1.6 minutes to the time the three played together, with a record of 11-9. - Brad Botkin | |

Norman Powell Portland Trail Blazers SF |
| After Powell joined, Portland’s starting lineup was an elite lineup, but after starting the season with Toronto, Powell’s hot shooting rate The 3% and 43% of the market have quietly dropped to 36%. Powell, another small, shooting guard, is superfluous in the Trail Blazers that already have Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum?
