20. Dalano Banto, PG
Despite being 6-foot-9, Dalano Banto does play the point guard position for the Toronto Raptors. He was used sparingly during his first two seasons, but with the potential departure of Fred VanVleet, it’s hard to see Toronto letting him become an unrestricted free agent.
19. Darius Bazley, PF/C
Thanks to being on the rebuilding Oklahoma City Thunder the past couple of years, Darius Bazley was able to get plenty of playing time early on in his career. However, the Thunder were competitive this past season and the 6-foot-8 big man saw his playing time go down. He was traded to the Phoenix Suns this past year and if he wants more than a minimum deal, the Suns could let him walk in free agency as he’s still pretty raw as a player.
18. Romeo Langford, SG
For the past season and a half, 6-foot-4 shooting guard Romeo Langford has been on the San Antonio Spurs roster. He’s never developed an outside shot which is a problem for the Spurs who now have a franchise cornerstone in Victor Wembanyama, keeping a non-shooter like Langford doesn’t make much sense.
17. Sandro Mamukelashvili, C
The Spurs claimed 6-foot-11 big man Sandro Mamukelashvili off of waivers this past season and converted his two-way deal to a regular one. Mamukelashvili has shown an ability to stretch the floor but struggles to make an impact outside of that at this point of his career. If he can be signed for cheap, San Antonio should consider bringing him back.
16. Jaxson Hayes, C
Despite being a former lottery pick, Jaxson Hayes has struggled to make his mark with the New Orleans Pelicans. The 6-foot-11 big man is one of the better athletes in the NBA so he could be interesting for the Philadelphia 76ers if the Pelicans let him become a free agent and he could be signed on a cheap deal, which is less than likely.
