NBA Market: Three Bargains Still Available in Free Agency

With the frenzy of NBA free agency reduced to a slow drip, there are still some interesting players who could strengthen rosters at a very competitive price. Teams with specific needs can still reel in some bargains before the start of the preseason.

While all signs point to Chris Paul signing with the Los Angeles Clippers, let's take a look at three of the top players who are still available at a low cost.

Russell Westbrook

At 36, Westbrook chose to decline his $3.4 million player option with the Denver Nuggets, making him a free agent. Several teams have reportedly shown interest in the veteran point guard.

Last season with Denver, he averaged 13.3 points and 6.1 assists in nearly 28 minutes per game, demonstrating that he can perform at a high level coming off the bench in the right system.

Rumors have surfaced in the past week that another Eastern Conference contender is interested in his services. Additionally, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from Oklahoma City is said to have made him a proposal that could be hard to refuse.

Chris Boucher

The Canadian power forward/center, who was part of the Raptors' 2019 championship team and the last man standing from that roster, is now seeking a new destination. Standing at 7'4" tall, as noted by Greg Swartz (Bleacher Report), Boucher can shoot over defenders and disrupt shots from all areas of the court.

In just 17.2 minutes per game, he averaged 10.0 points and 4.5 rebounds last season, with an impressive 36.3% from three-point range. His profile is ideal for providing energy and versatility off the bench.

Amir Coffey

Considered the best available 3&D small forward, Coffey is coming off his best season with the Clippers. At 28, he averaged 9.7 points per game with an excellent 40.9% from beyond the arc in 72 games.

Swartz highlights that Coffey "can play and defend multiple positions," making him a very useful piece for any aspiring team. His plug-and-play profile fits perfectly into any rotation.
