1. Christian Wood
One massive free agent who few are talking about is Christian Wood. The breakout star of the Detroit Pistons has led the team in just about every advanced statistic this season and is poised for bigger things.
Wood led the Pistons in Offensive and Defensive Rating last season for his ability to succeed around the rim on both sides of the floor. He is a lengthy athlete, finishing close to 60 percent of his field goal attempts. Though he isn’t a prolific shot blocker, his long arms help him deter opponents from attacking the paint.
In the absence of Andre Drummond, Wood played big minutes at the center position towards the end of the year. This is where he was at his best, averaging 24.8 points and 9.4 rebounds in the final eight games.
The Warriors could use Wood in small-ball lineups to dominate opponents with speed and agility. At 24 years of age, Wood could be gearing up for another massive jump in production if given the opportunity.
