1. Luke Kennard
Upon his arrival to the Grizzlies at last year's deadline, Luke Kennard proved to be rather valuable to a team that severely lacked in consistent long-range shooting.
Throughout his tenure in Grind City, the veteran has found himself splashing home a whopping 48.3 percent of his shots from distance and, this past campaign, ranked second in three point percentage behind only Suns guard Grayson Allen.
A specialist among specialists, the 27-year-old is someone who can add some serious value to any playoff-bound team in need of a steady shooting stroke.
And while an argument can be made that Memphis is a team that fits this bill, considering they're coming off such a lackluster campaign and are expected to sport the seventh-highest payroll in the league next season, some salary shedding and roster clearing may be needed to better their odds of jumping back into the contender conversation in 2024-25.
Opting out of Kennard's $14.7 million team option for next season could prove to be quite strategic in a multitude of ways, and can now be excused from a game plan standpoint thanks to the highly capable floor-spacing abilities of the recently emerged GG Jackson and Vince Williams Jr., both of whom can fill in for the former Duke standout on the wing.
