He's a Philly native, and he could be this year's Belinelli for them... so that's a decent bet

Ellington in OKC will look so good. They need his shooting more than any other top team.

Johnson can ball, albeit expensive he can still put up numbers.

I'm confused why Miami does this, isn't Dragic out still?

i guess Miami thinks Winslow is ready to initiate the offense full time

76% from the line also! Almost double Lonzo or your average 3rd grader.

Why pair Dragic and Kokoskov when you can get Tyler Johnson on 20m.
