2. Paul Milsap

A model of consistency the past nine seasons, Paul Milsap has established himself as one of the best power forwards in the league. Although he is a bit undersized for the position, that hasn’t stopped him in the slightest. Coming off his fourth straight All-Star selection, Milsap averaged a career high in points last season at 18.1 points per game.

Milsap brings a great all-around game in which he contributes on the glass, assists, and solid contributions on the defensive end. Milsap is a also a solid 3-point shooter which keeps defenses honest whenever he touches the ball.

Milsap will bring great leadership and poise to any team that he decides to sign with, and could potentially be the missing piece on a team poised to make a run at a championship. Although he is 32 years-old now, Milsap has showed no signs of slowing down anytime soon, and continues to remain laser focused on improving his game.
