We don’t yet know if Watson will be available this season, as he has not made a decision on his player option, but if he does opt out, he would be a very good replacement option.
Watson was once a Warrior between 2007-10, but was moved to the Chicago Bulls and turned into one of the best backup point guards in the league. Then, he moved on to Brooklyn. He provides a quality offensive punch and playmaking ability.
He also is the cheapest option of these five, and would most likely be signed to a veteran minimum contract, which is what his current deal is.
