#8 Matt Barnes
Matt Barnes is a seasoned veteran with playoff experience and a god given sense of basketball toughness. He last played for the 2017 NBA Champions - the Golden State Warriors.
A team with ‘soft’ superstars need someone to have their back when events go south. Barnes is the perfect candidate for such a job. The 3-and-D enforcer remains an eligible free agent. Despite the rule changes and evolving playing style in the league, tough and disruptive players are good for entertainment.
Matt Barnes is a good shooter who doesn’t really need the ball for him to be effective. He can play both forward positions and can defend multiple positions. The only question mark is the number of technical fouls he can accumulate, his off-court issues and whether he can perform at the age of 37.
Guess the Lakers players!
