5 free agent targets that could help 76ers following 2019 NBA Draft
By Dan Parzych
1. Danny Green
For the most part, Danny Green is known for his impressive 3-point shooting from time to time when the shooting guard is catching fire on offense, but his defensive skills are even more impressive.
Just look at how complicated Green made it for opposing teams during the recent postseason such as the Bucks and Golden State Warriors to show why it’s only a matter of time before he’s rewarded with a new deal that should make him quite happy.
After recently helping the Raptors take home their first title in franchise history, all signs point to Toronto doing whatever it takes to re-sign Green since he would play a key role in the team’s chances of repeating.
But since the Raptors have a few questions of their own when it comes to whether certain players will return, Green could very well end up playing for a different team during the 2018-19 season, especially if they were willing to offer more money than Toronto.
Without question, J.J. Redick has done an unbelievable job filling in at shooting guard over the last two seasons, but Green’s defensive skills alone make him seem like the better option.
If Green were to make himself available, this would almost seem like a no brainer for the Sixers to consider.
