Hollinger "More than minimum, less than the midlevel"

13. Derrick Jones Jr., 26, Chicago: $7,937,768
A perennially underrated vagabond who is somehow only 26, Jones would be a good candidate with the room or taxpayer exception for a team that doesn’t require him to space the floor. Jones isn’t going to rain from deep, but the dunk contest champ makes up for it with energy, rim runs and transition dunks. He’s a career 61 percent shooter inside the arc and offers considerable secondary rim protection (4.0 percent block rate last year!) from the four position.

15. Hachimura ($5M)
16. Niang ($4.6)
17. T Prince ($3.7)

I'm a huge fan of this signing.  He doesn't take a ton of 3s, but interestingly his left corner 3 has been over 40% each of the last 3 years.  Seems like something Luka could take advantage of. 

I also think lineups with him and Maxi could be interesting.  He is actually a good rim runner, and a surprisingly good shot blocker.
