#2 Marcus Smart - Boston Celtics
Marcus Smart is the kind of player that any of the 30 NBA teams would love to have on their roster. Arguably the most under rated defender in the league, Smart makes up for his limited offence with his defensive brilliance and infectious energy.
After another strong year with the Celtics averaging 10 PPG, 5 APG & 4 RPG, Smart might well be looking at a much more lucrative contract this time around. Moreover, with the emergence of Terry Rozier and Jason Tatum, playing time may very well become a concern for him in the upcoming season.
Though unlikely, its still a possibility that if Boston doesn’t agree with the kind of money he demands from them, Smart might look else where and can very well land one of the most lucrative financial deals this off season.
