10. Rashad Vaughn

What he provides

Early on in his career, Rashad Vaughn has offered up-and-down production. At times, Vaughn can be very impressive. He offers good length, athleticism, and is capable of knocking down shots when he’s at his best.

Still, the 17th overall pick from 2015 has yet to show any consistent production at this point in his career. His minutes have decreased each season thus far, and he has now found himself out of coach Jason Kidd‘s regular rotation.

Contract situation

The Bucks recently decided against picking up the $2.9 million option on the last year of Vaughn’s contract, meaning he’ll enter free agency next summer.

Potential Suitors

With the Bucks declining Vaughn’s fourth-year option, they have clearly signaled they are ready to move on. Unfortunately, this also likely means that the market for Vaughn is not very strong either.

If there was interest around the league for the third-year UNLV product, a team would want another year on a very inexpensive contract. Still, as a former first round pick, Vaughn offers higher upside than the previously listed players, and there is a small chance that a team believes Vaughn simply needs a change of scenery.
