Westbrook ranked 7th! US media showed the top 25 of the big fish in the free market: Simmons 11 Paul 6 Kuminga ranked 3rd

Westbrook ranks 7th! After the first wave of large-scale reinforcement in the free market, the US media "bleacherreport" also released the list of the top 25 remaining big fish in the free market, including Ben Simmons 11, Paul Old, and Warriors Kumingga ranked third.

No. 1: Gidey (restricted)

As the big fish in the free market find their next player one after another, Gidey won the championship in this list, but he will soon complete the contract renewal, and the possibility of the Bulls letting him go is slim.

The Bulls and Thunder completed a win-win deal in the 24-25 season, Caruso helped the Thunder win the championship, and "Australian Magician" Gidey fully realized his talent with the Bulls, so the Bulls had no reason to let him go.

Considering that there is currently no team that has room to provide Gideon's large contract, US media estimates that the Bulls will keep him with a multi-year contract with an average salary of $25-28 million.

Second place: Grimes (restricted)

Grimes is in a restricted free agent like Gidey, and the Sixers can match contracts provided by other teams.

The difference is that Grimes is not very important to the Sixers, but is just a surprise positioning. His value is entirely due to the opportunity to play when core players such as George, Embiid, and Maxi are injured.

In addition, there are not many teams with space in the market, the 76ers only need to use a contract with a full middle class that is slightly higher than 1,410 to have hope of keeping the surprise, while Grimes has always hoped to get a big contract with an average salary of $25 million, which is the core reason why it has not completed the signing.

Third place: Kumingga (restricted)

Due to role positioning issues, Kumingga has fallen out with Cole. The Warriors also quickly began to sell Kumingga after entering the offseason, but the latter has poor feedback in the trading market.

According to the latest report by ClutchPoints reporter Brett Siegel, according to the current market conditions, it is simply unrealistic to meet Kumingga's salary requirements and the Warriors' trading returns.

Therefore, the two sides are likely to sign a compromise contract and then leave the team through a trade before the mid-season trading deadline in December.

4th place: Kam Thomas (restricted)

Kam Thomas is a difficult player to evaluate. He played impressive numbers in the bad Nets and seemed to be a talented scorer.

But his offensive efficiency is not good, and there are problems with mistake control, which makes people doubt the value of his data, so he is cold in the free market.

Whether the Nets want to keep him is not clear enough. US media predicts that the two sides will compromise with each other to reach a three-year, $24 million new contract.

Fifth place: Horford (full free agent)

Due to Tatum's serious injury, the Celtics cleaned up their combat power and controlled their salary and luxury tax expenses. Veteran Horford also began to choose their next home after he returned to his freedom.

Initially, reporter Ary revealed that Horford would join the Warriors, and soon after, Michael Scotto and Marc Stein followed up and pointed out that all signs did point out that Horford would eventually join the Warriors, but he is still considering trying to explore more options, even including direct retirement.

According to the current market feedback, joining the Warriors will be the best choice for Horford, and he will get a big enough role.

The rest are ranked as follows: Paul, Westbrook, Bill, Kofi and Boucher;

11-15: Ben Simmons, Payton Jr., Tob, Melton and Brogdon;

16-20: Matthews, Shamet, Joseph, Cody Martin and Arcousa;

21-25: Lyles, Banton, Wright, Burks and Beasley.
