PJ Tucker
If you’ve been keeping up with the news, you surely expected to see PJ Tucker’s name here. He’s been so closely linked to the Philadelphia 76ers that he’s practically already on the team.
He’d be a perfect acquisition. It’s not hard to envision a world where Tucker earns a starting spot over Tobias Harris. While Harris is a more dynamic offensive player, they’re comparable floor-spacers. Meanwhile, Tucker is leagues ahead of him on the defensive end.
Furthermore, PJ Tucker has pre-existing chemistry with Harden. The two enjoyed several successful years together on the Houston Rockets. Ironically, those teams were run by none other than Daryl Morey.
At a championship level, chemistry counts. At the same time, PJ Tucker has the type of portable game that would fit any team. Even at the age of 37, he’s a no-brainer acquisition for any team looking to contend in 2022-23.
