  1. I don’t know if I would take Reaves over any of the top 17 listed in a vacuum. With salary considerations the list would change quite a bit. 

  2. GoalPublic3579

    Well yeah. He sucked last year for the most part.

  3. Eric_T_Meraki

    Who’s best last option? More interested in that.

  4. whowasonCRACK2

    I’d put him around 10. Several of those guys in the 10-20 range are washed

  5. incredibleamadeuscho

    DLo is our third option as of now on this team

  6. Bahamut727

    DLo is our third option and he shud be like top 10 in that regard

  7. Pretty disingenuous to rank PG as a 3rd option. He’s better than Maxey if healthy.

    I know this is about scoring but I’d probably go Jrue over Porky

  9. CorporateCog100

    goddamn it just hit me the Sixers got fucking Paul George as a 3rd option

    This is an easy question for me. Reaves would be a great 4th best player for any contender, but unless he have a breakout season like Pelinka or JJ was talking about, he isn’t suited to be the 3rd best guy for a title contender. He has been the 3rd best player in playoffs because Dlo a player that is maybe slight better than him in regular season is a playoff chocker, but unless he improves his game to another level, Reaves shouldn’t be the 3rd best player for a title contender and to be fair, we shouldn’t expect it from a player that is paid like a 6th man already delivering much more value than he is paid for.

    I noticed Austin’s game this last season was different then in 2022-2023. He stopped attacking the basket and being aggressive. I feel like if goes back to his older playing style things will be way different for us.

    Reaves is a white guy with a white guy swag that’s why he gets over hyped in ways guys like Herro or Divincinoz don’t. If Tyler Herro had a country boi every day white guy swag he would be getting double the hype. Having said that Reaves is a good role player but the media in his fans take it too far.

    How is draymond 9th. Homie averages 7 points. He’s a 6th option. 3rd best player sure but not a 3rd option
