13. Gerald Wallace

What a fall from grace for Gerald Wallace. The last time he scored in double figures the Nets were still in Jersey. With 13 years in the league under his belt, Wallace is going to play more of the senior in the locker room role for the Celtics. He’ll also be Jeff Green’s crash test dummy.

Wallace’s biggest contribution to the Celtics will be pushing Green to having his best year yet. Green’s skillset with Wallace’s ferocity on defense is pretty scary for opposing teams. He’ll be ready to give Green fits in practice, because after three sub-par seasons that’s about all he has left to contribute.
