Free Agent No. 4: Jevon Carter, Guard

The Milwaukee Bucks have used creativity in how they structure their roster and lineups, not simply sticking with normal positional locations. One illustration of that is Jevon Carter, the 3-and-D point guard who fits best alongside another lead creator.

Carter has hit 43.7 percent of his three-pointers over the past two seasons in Milwaukee, and he excels as something of a small wing defending point guards alongside another playmaker. The Warriors could slot him in with nearly any backcourt member.

Free Agent No. 3: Damion Lee, Wing

From here, we have a trio of players who were on the most recent edition of the Phoenix Suns, playing on the receiving end of Chris Paul’s passes. That includes Damion Lee, a sharpshooting wing who just so happens to be Stephen Curry’s brother-in-law.

Playing alongside Chris Paul, Devin Booker and (eventually) Kevin Durant, Lee was wildly successful on three-pointers a season ago, hitting 44.5%. He could come back to the Warriors (and to Paul) and prove himself on a team that desperately needs his shooting.
