11. Talen Horton-Tucker
2023-24 Stats: 51 GP, 10.1 PPG, 2.4 RPG, 3.5 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 23
Talen Horton-Tucker, once seen as a dependable backup point guard with the Los Angeles Lakers, has faded into obscurity since his trade to the Utah Jazz. Despite this, he remains a viable backup option in the league. The Milwaukee Bucks are in need of a backup point guard, and THT's former coach, now Bucks' assistant Darvin Ham, could advocate for his acquisition.
Predicted Landing Spot: Milwaukee Bucks
1. Tyus Jones
2023-24 Stats: 66 GP, 12.0 PPG, 7.3 APG, 2.7 RPG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 28
Tyus Jones didn’t have much to work with the Washington Wizards, but he's still viewed around the league as a strong option at the point guard position. The Orlando Magic need guard depth around their young stars, and Jones could be someone that they could easily plug and play.
Landing Spot Prediction: Orlando Magic
2. Markelle Fultz
2023-24 Stats: 43 GP, 7.8 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 2.8 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 26
The Brooklyn Nets are in a full-blown rebuild, giving them the perfect opportunity to take a chance on high-upside potential. There are few free agents with a higher ceiling than the former number one overall pick Markelle Fultz, who could benefit from more on-ball opportunities in Brooklyn.
Landing Spot Prediction: Brooklyn Nets
3. Isaac Okoro
2023-24 Stats: 69 GP, 9.4 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 1.9 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 23
Isaac Okoro is still sitting on the market as an unrestricted free agent, but the Cleveland Cavaliers are unlikely to let him walk unless a desperate team throws Okoro an offer sheet that he cannot refuse.
Landing Spot Prediction: Cleveland Cavaliers

4. Spencer Dinwiddie
2023-24 Stats: 76 GP, 10.5 PPG, 2.7 RPG, 4.7 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 31
The Los Angeles Lakers are eager to sign cheap, but proven depth, and Spencer Dinwiddie provided strong depth in the second half of last season. Why break up a good thing when there is mutual interest on a return?
Landing Spot Prediction: Los Angeles Lakers
5. Luke Kennard
2023-24 Stats: 39 GP, 11.0 PPG, 2.9 RPG, 35 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 28
The Memphis Grizzlies have declined Luke Kennard's team option, but both sides want to put together a long-term, restructured deal. We'll take the reports for their word.
Landing Spot Prediction: Memphis Grizzlies

6. Gordon Hayward
2023-24 Stats: 51 GP, 9.8 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 3.1 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 34
Gordon Hayward never got to see through his tenure with the Boston Celtics due to his tragic injury, but at the current stage of his career, he can be a valuable rotation piece off the bench. Hayward wants to win a ring, and the Celtics should welcome him back with open arms.
Landing Spot Prediction: Boston Celtics
7. Precious Achiuwa
2023-24 Stats: 74 GP, 7.6 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 1.3 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 25
Precious Achiuwa may be the best big man left on the market, so the New York Knicks better get to work to retain the big man before another team hands him a decent offer. Achiuwa reportedly wants to remain with the Knicks, so despite other interest, we'll trust that both sides can work out a deal.
Landing Spot Prediction: New York Knicks
8. Lonnie Walker IV
2023-24 Stats: 58 GP, 9.7 PPG, 2.2 RPG, 1.3 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 25
The Brooklyn Nets need bodies for next season, and Lonnie Walker IV should be able to fill many minutes for a rebuilding squad.
Predicted Landing Spot: Brooklyn Nets
9. Davis Bertans
2023-24 Stats: 43 GP, 7.7 PPG, 2.4 RPG, 0.9 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 32
Davis Bertans was released by the Charlotte Hornets and responded with remarkable poise. Despite being cut, he remains a valuable veteran forward, capable of providing minutes and three-point shooting for any team. At 32 years old, Bertans could be a strategic addition for the Philadelphia 76ers, who need size and shooting depth.
Predicted Landing Spot: Philadelphia 76ers
10. Cedi Osman
2023-24 Stats: 72 GP, 6.8 PPG, 2.5 RPG, 1.7 APG
Age Entering 2024-25 Season: 29
Cedi Osman logged significant minutes off the bench for the San Antonio Spurs last season, performing well enough to secure another minimum deal to remain in the league. After his long tenure with the Cleveland Cavaliers, JB Bickerstaff might consider reuniting with Osman to aid in the Detroit Pistons’ ongoing rebuild.
Predicted Landing Spot: Detroit Pistons
