Los Angeles Lakers: 5 free agent targets to repeat in 2020-21

2. Danilo Gallinari

Danilo Gallinari has to be the best free agent available that is rumored to be looking for a new place. While the 2019-20 OKC Thunder were far more successful than people originally anticipated, Gallo simply does not fit the team’s rebuilding plans.

Danilo is the embodiment of the phrase “Stretch-Four”. He has become a top scorer in the league and a serious threat outside the 3-point line. After two consecutive seasons shooting over 40 percent on his threes, Gallinari is about to draw some serious interest around the league.

Throughout his NBA career, Gallinari has made over $115,000,000 million. Even though people have always thought of him as a heavy-contract kind of guy, his numbers would disagree. He may not be the flashiest on the court, but scoring is his forte.

Now, being clearer than ever that Danilo wants to compete for a ring, a Mid Level Exception would be the ideal contract proposal for him. A sufficient amount for his talent, yet enough for the team’s financial tightness.
