8. Kent Bazemore

All Kent Bazemore really needs is a chance to prove himself. He’s been on the verge of ripe opportunity and was close to showing he belongs, however year-after-year he’s constantly having to prove himself, despite being a coveted team player. Standing at 6-foot-5 , Bazemore averaged six  points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists during the 2013-14 season, while starting the year for the Golden State Warriors and ending the season with the Los Angeles Lakers.

It’s possible Bazemore will be nothing more than a locker room guy. Although he’s a capable defensive player, Carroll is significantly better. Last Scott and Sefolosha are better options on the wing. At this point Bazemore is insurance for an injury on the wing; however, should he need to fill in, he’ll do it quite well.
