Early Predictions For Where Top 2017 NBA Free Agents Will Sign

14. Dwyane Wade, SG, Chicago Bulls (Unrestricted)

Where he will sign: Denver Nuggets

There’s a very good chance Dwyane Wade sticks around in Chicago after returning to his old stomping grounds last offseason. However, with the way things have gone in 2016-17, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if he decided to up and move again.

Since Wade joined the Bulls, things haven’t gone well for the franchise. They failed to live up to their contender expectations amidst an ugly season characterized by inner turmoil and chemistry issues.

For a future Hall of Famer like Wade, I’m sure that’s not the situation he wanted to be in when he originally decided to sign.

Yes, the Denver Nuggets aren’t exactly a perfect landing spot for Wade. However, with Danilo Gallinari potentially leaving this offseason, they’re going to need a new scorer who can do serious damage out on the wing.

Wade fits the bill, and the Nuggets have the cap space to bring him aboard at essentially whatever price he wants.

Denver has the makings of a contender with some excellent young prospects like Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. Adding a key veteran or two to the mix may just be what the club needs to get over the hump.

Wade seems like the right guy to take this fringe playoff team and turn them into one worth taking seriously.
