9. Mason Plumlee
I’m not sure what to think of Mason Plumlee. I love his size and athleticism, but I worry that he is too pick and roll reliant. Maybe that is a good thing, and Lillard will find him for countless alley oops. But if his only offensive support is on those P&R’s, I could see a dip in his playing time. He does have a ton of upside though, and if he plays like he did for a while last year in Brooklyn, we could see his name rise in these rankings.
