1. Jeff Green

The Los Angeles Lakers will be in the market for some scoring off the bench this offseason. Jeff Green could help provide that. He could also provide veteran leadership and another familiar face that has played with LeBron.

Green who was out of the league for a little bit after being cut by the Utah Jazz, resurfaced with the Houston Rockets. He played very well for the Rockets down the stretch and had a very good playoff run for the team. During the regular season be shot splits of 56.4/35.4/85.7 while averaging 12.2 points per game.

When the playoffs came around he kept up the hot hand. He shot a line of 49.5/42.6/82.4 and averaging 11.6 points per game. He helped the Rockets off the bench as they were pressed on the cap and needed cheap scoring.

Next. Why the Lakers won't trade for DeMar DeRozan. dark

Green has made close to $80 million in his career, so another veteran minimum deal could be in play here. He has starting experience, off the bench experience and also has plenty of postseason experience. This is good value here.
