1. Trendon Watford
The Clippers are the oldest team in the NBA. Perhaps they were never going to sign the 22-year-old Watford on a one-year prove-it deal. In hindsight, it's something they should have considered.
Watford is the worst shooter we've named here. He's hitting 35.7% of his 0.9 threes per game in 2023-24. He doesn't get on the floor very often for the floundering Brooklyn Nets, either.
Counterargument: So what? Watford is making just over $2 million this year. His contract will expire at the end of the season. He's a versatile defender who can guard across positions and offers enough rim protection to play the 5.
