1. JaKarr Sampson

JaKarr Sampson has recently played for the Indiana Pacers and could be an option to re-sign moving forward. Sampson has been linked to some teams in a big bench role, and Indiana could ultimately bring back their veteran center.

Sampson brings an element that is needed on the defensive end. He is not much of an offensive threat and has not been throughout his career.

Sampson is just a 20% shooter for his career and has caused 5.2 points per game. This is a player that knows his role, and that showed during his time in Indiana.

This is a low-risk move for Indiana, who featured Sampson last season. It is hard to find some for Sampson when looking at potential fits, so it would make sense for him to return to Indiana in a system and role that he knows well already.
