Matt Barnes

Barnes' 2015-16 campaign got off to a rough start before any actual games were played, as he made headlines for all the wrong reasons in October when he was involved in a physical altercation with then-Knicks coach Derek Fisher at the home of his estranged wife. He ultimately served a two-game suspension, but was otherwise one of only a few players on an injury-plagued Grizzlies roster to avoid a significant absence. With so many key players missing, Barnes was often forced to take on more of a lead role as a scorer, which was reflected in his career-high 9.1 shot attempts per game. Unfortunately, Barnes' lack of skills as a creator led to many of those shots being contested, and he finished with a career-low 38.1 field goal percentage as a consequence. While he was a major liability in that category, Barnes did average 10.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.6 three-pointers, 1.0 steal and 0.8 blocks in 28.8 minutes per game, making him solid filler on most rosters over the course of the season. Barnes will settle back into a more natural supporting role after landing in his hometown of Sacramento this offseason on a two-year contract. He'll likely serve as the primary backup to Rudy Gay to begin the season, but Barnes could slide into a starting role before long with Gay already announcing his desire to get traded. Even if Gay sticks around past the deadline, Barnes still figures to see plenty of run off the bench, where his ability to guard multiple positions and knock down open three-pointers figures to play well.
