With teams being able to sign free agents starting this Friday there has been a lot of talk about who is going to be playing where next season. Most of the talk has been about the big men Nene, Tyson Chandler, and Marc Gasol. Sure they are definitely the top right new there is one free agent who I believe would definitely be able to help out any team next season. That guy is Rodney Stuckey.
At 6'5" Stuckey can play both guard positions and has been starting at the point guard for the Pistons for the last 3 seasons. Stuckey is a restricted free agent meaning the Pistons can match any offer he is given but the question is would they? After drafting Brandon Knight to be the teams future at the point guard position and with them already having given sizable contracts to Ben Gordon and Richard Hamilton, would they be willing to match a big offer for Stuckey. He has shown that he can definitely score and his assist numbers have gone up as his career progresses. At only 25 years old I think he probably the best young guard on the market right now. The question is which team with cap space would take a chance on him. One place I think he could land is New Orleans. With Chris Paul pretty much one foot out the door they need to start preparing for the future. Why not attempt to sign Stuckey and trade Chris Paul for assets to build the franchise?
What do you think? Who are some free agents that nobody is talking about?
