Justin Lewis (@J_Timberfake_): Lance Stephenson (Indiana Pacers)

Lance “Born Ready” Stephenson was created by the basketball gods to be a Memphis Grizzly. I think, in some parallel universe, Lance is somehow related to the Grindfather, Tony Allen.

His trick or treat style of play resembles so much of what we saw from Number Nine for years, with a better jump shot. Just watching Lance harass LeBron in the first round this year was pure gold.

The Grizzlies need a three-and-D wing. Still. Lance is not a sharpshooter by any means, but he can get it done. He is a high-energy guy and veteran that could help the Grizz return to the playoffs next season.

Runner up: James Johnson (Miami Heat)
