Seems like we need to sign a small forward for depth. Here's a list of available players.

I could see Caron making a come back. Or Tayshaun. Both for a 1 yr vet minimum. Copeland or Gee would make nice back ups too.

(Feel free to move to trade and free agency discussion)

Tayshaun Prince SF 35 UFA DET TBD - - -
Landry Fields SF 27 UFA TOR TBD - - -
Caron Butler SF 35 UFA MIL TBD - - -
Gerald Green SF 29 UFA PHX TBD - - -
Dorell Wright SF 29 UFA POR TBD - - -
Chris Copeland SF 31 UFA IND TBD - - -
Josh Smith SF 29 UFA HOU TBD - - -
Luigi Datome SF 27 UFA BOS TBD - - -
Shawne Williams SF 29 UFA MIL TBD - - -
Luke Babbitt SF 26 UFA NOP TBD - - -
Hedo Turkoglu SF 36 UFA LAC TBD - - -
Quincy Acy SF 24 UFA NYK TBD - - -
Rasual Butler SF 36 UFA WAS TBD - - -

Luc Mbah a Moute, a small forward body and a combo forward skill set.

I'd take KJ McDaniels...we need some good perimeter defenders and he would be a great finisher for our playmakers.

Surprised he isn't signed already. What is the supposed knock on him (why did Philly dump him despite admirable rookie year stat lines) ?

He's a RFA and word is the Rockets will match for him, I think that's kept other teams from making offers.

He had his ups and downs last season as a rookie, but if I recall correctly Philly traded him because he (and his mother) made it very clear he wouldn't be coming back to Philly no matter what. On top of that, he's a wing player was a very inconsistent shooter and Philly needs shooters pretty badly. Other than that, I'm not sure exactly why Philly decided to trade him.

I really like him as a potential Danny Green type 3&D player. His shooting stroke doesn't look broken, it can be improved. You can't teach his ridiculous athleticism and his defensive tenacity.

there is really nobody on that list I really want to have. It's more a "pick your poison" list
