What are the ideal teams where Gafford fits the timeline and could make a difference?
He needs a top creator on the team to be at his best. And his hustle and rim defense should be a great asset that team doesn’t have in bunches.
For me the Nuggets come to mind, they are in win now mode and he would look great next to Jokic when they size up and play big.
The Suns could be an option to double down with Mark Williams.
The Rockets as well, when they want to play bigger and have Sengun as a 4.
And very clear fit are the Knicks, they tried to steal Cisse for a reason, because they lost a lot of rim protection that Drummond won’t provide.
Not the biggest of markets…
Did I forget a team?
