4. Nikola Vucevic

There aren’t many more lowkey stars than Nikola Vucevic. The Orlando big man was an All-Star in 2019 and narrowly missed the game in 2020 but is one of the most talented centers the NBA has to offer.

For the last six seasons, Vucevic has averaged 18.2 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. This double-double machine is as consistent as they come and could fill a void in the Warriors rotation. Standing at 7-feet tall, Vucevic would be the tallest member of the roster.

His size alone would help him have an impact in potential series against the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets. Throw in his above-average passing and adequate defense and Vucevic could be a game-changer for the Dubs.

Vucevic will be able to offer a paint presence on both ends of the floor without dominating the ball. This is a natural fit for both parties.
