Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports
Good outside shooter but one who can be a bit streaky at times. His actual impact to winning is a bit questionable, though, as he provides very little on defense and isn’t much of a passer.
2023/24 stats: 13.7 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 1.7 apg, 42.6 FG%, 39.3 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $18,560,000
Career earnings: $37,424,177
Agent: Rich Paul and Lucas Newton

Athletic guard with some pull-up scoring prowess. An inefficient scorer, though, due to an inconsistent jumper. Does play with a lot of energy.
2023/24 stats: 9.7 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 1.3 apg, 42.3 FG%, 38.4 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $2,346,614
Career earnings: $18,946,976
Agent: Rich Paul and Lucas Newton
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports
One of the better shooters in the league and an underrated player off the dribble, both as a scorer and creator. Tries on defense but short arms and average athleticism hamper him there.
2023/24 stats: 11.0 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 3.5 apg, 44.8 FG%, 45.0 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $14,763,636
Career earnings: $42,228,728
Agent: Steve Heumann, Aaron Mintz, Dave Spahn
2023/24 stats: 7.1 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 1.2 apg, 43.1 FG%, 33.8 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $10,250,000
Career earnings: $29,309,422
Agent: George Langberg
Rob Gray-USA TODAY Sports
Still young despite it feeling like forever ago when he was breaking out with the Lakers. Starting to show some promise as a combo guard scoring type with midrange scoring skills.
2023/24 stats: 10.1 ppg, 2.4 rpg, 3.5 apg, 39.6 FG%, 33.0 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $11,020,000
Career earnings: $22,176,291
Agent: Rich Paul and Lucas Newton
David Reginek-USA TODAY Sports
Three-level scorer who hasn’t shown much scoring over the past couple of seasons. Could he be headed overseas to finish out his career? Can’t be ruled out.
2023/24 stats: 6.9 ppg, 1.8 rpg, 1.5 apg, 35.7 FG%, 25.4 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $18,857,143
Career earnings: $126,999,101
Agent: Bouna Ndiaye

Spot-up shooting guard who can play some defense.
2023/24 stats: 4.0 ppg, 1.2 rpg, 1.2 apg, 45.4 FG%, 40.4 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $3,196,448
Career earnings: $34,337,469
Agent: Bernie Lee
Former high draft pick who has struggled to make his game translate to the top level. Some off-the-dribble scoring chops.
2023/24 stats: 3.6 ppg, 0.6 rpg, 0.4 apg, 43.9 FG%, 43.3 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $4,570,080
Career earnings: $8,516,640
Agent: Nick Blatchford
Savvy point guard. But getting up there in age and has yet to make much of an NBA impact. Could be a good overseas option.
2023/24 stats: 4.1 ppg, 1.1 rpg, 2.2 apg, 39.6 FG%, 29.6 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $1,165,280
Career earnings: $1,159,699
Agent: Kieran Piller and Mark Bartelstein
Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports
A veteran guard/forward that can defend and hit open threes. A pure 3-and-D player with inefficient shooting numbers of late.
2023/24 stats: 3.1 ppg, 1.5 rpg, 0.6 apg, 35.1 FG%, 34.8 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $3,196,448
Career earnings: $114,834,028
Agent: Jeff Austin
Confident shooter who isn’t shy about firing away from three. But the numbers don’t reflect well on the confidence he shoots with. Not much of a defender.
2023/24 stats: 2.5 ppg, 0.9 rpg, 0.7 apg, 39.5 FG%, 35.0 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $5,370,370
Career earnings: $16,218,910
Agent: Jason Glushon and Dan Tobin
Good outside shooter at the 2-guard spot which should help him stick around at the NBA level.
2023/24 stats: 4.4 ppg, 1.9 rpg, 1.0 apg, 39.7 FG%, 36.4 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $1,108,597
Career earnings: $129,405
Agent: Derek Malloy
Combo guard who can get some buckets but needs to improve three-point shot.
2023/24 stats: 6.3 ppg, 1.5 rpg, 3.2 apg, 48.8 FG%, 30.8 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $1,809,782
Career earnings: $2,599,913
Agent: Mark Bartelstein and Kieran Piller
Alonzo Adams-USA TODAY Sports
Decent backup point guard who can really shoot the three-ball. Uses quickness well on defense.
2023/24 stats: 3.6 ppg, 1.1 rpg, 0.6 apg, 47.1 FG%, 43.5 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $766,095
Career earnings: $2,476,403
Agent: Herb Rudoy
If he could shoot, he probably wouldn’t be heading into free agency. Athletic point guard with a lot of strength as a driver. But lack of a jumper really hurts him in modern NBA. Very solid defender, too.
2023/24 stats: 2.2 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 2.4 apg, 37.8 FG%, 20.0 3P%
2023/24 earnings: $1,112,933
Career earnings: $1,442,792
Agent: Bill Duffy
