HONORABLE MENTION: Luis Scola

Scola helped the Toronto Raptors get to the Eastern Conference Finals, where they fell to the eventual champions the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Fun fact: Scola almost suited up for the Silver and Black years ago, but there was some difficulty in buying out his contract with TAU Ceramica, his European team at the time. He ended up going to the Houston Rockets.

Scola is 36, but still can get it done. Manu Ginobili is his best friend and fellow Argentinian. And Tim Duncan is his idol.

So yeah…bring Scola home, Spurs. Finally.
