$1 billion was spent during the first hour of NBA free agency. Some of it was spent wisely.
The 26-year-old combo guard has averaged around 20 minutes per game while playing primarily off the bench for the 76ers over his first five seasons. In 11 starts last season, he averaged 20.3 points and 7.2 assists while shooting 52% from the field. With Mike Conley now closer to 40 than 30, Milton could find himself filling in as a starter. If not, he'll give the Wolves a much-needed spark off the bench with his ability to score inside and out.
Naz Reid likely could have gotten more playing time and money elsewhere, but he opted to give the Wolves a hometown discount before free agency even officially opened. The 23-year-old Reid averaged 11.5 points on 53.7% shooting and grabbed 4.9 rebounds per game in just 18.4 minutes per game last season. His potential two-way presence gives the Wolves flexibility should they look to end the KAT-Gobert experiment.
The veteran wing was scooped up by general manager Rob Pelinka after the Timberwolves declined to guarantee his $7.4 million contract. Prince has averaged 10.4 points per game during his career, shooting 37.2% on 4.4 3-pointers per game. His perimeter shooting will help fill a void on a Lakers team that shot 34.6% from deep last season, seventh worst in the league. It's refreshing to see a player in the modern NBA get rewarded for their perimeter defense.
A ball-hawk on the defensive end, Jones has averaged 1.6 steals per game over his first two seasons, finishing among the league's top 10 in both. If Jones' 44% shooting from deep after the All-Star break carries into the 2023-24 season, he has elite 3-and-D potential at a bargain rate. Russell Westbrook took the biggest pay cut in NBA history, according to HoopsHype, going from $47 million last season to $4 million next season.
