#7 Kelly Olynyk

For a Celtics homer like me, the mention of Olynyk brings up memories of our slow but steady ascent through the post-Pierce era. Drafted in 2013 for his ability to shoot from a variety of ranges, Olynyk has since improved on his defensive abilities.

Signing with the Heat and playing alongside more able cutters and rim-runners has allowed Olynyk to showcase his shooting range to the fullest. Although he has gotten off to a rather slow start from downtown, he's still attempting nearly 4 shots per game from distance, and his floor spacing is especially valuable to the Heat who only have Wayne Ellington as a spot-up threat.
