Portland Trail Blazers bargain basement free agent four – Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot

This entry on the list is probably a name most NBA fanbases haven’t heard, but Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot is a small forward who can really shoot it. The six-foot-seven french national has bounced around a few teams in his four years in the NBA, but this year he had his best season from both a minute and an efficiency standpoint.

Still 25-years old, Cabarrot was great in the bubble for the short-handed Brooklyn Nets. After averaging just 5 points a game before the All-Star break, he cranked up to 14 points a game on 46 percent shooting from three during the bubble seeding games.

Though he only shot 33 percent from three in the NBA playoffs, he still averaged 16 points a game. Cabarrot’s offensive game is perfect for the modern NBA. He gets to the line and the rim, and he shoots threes. He has a great free throw rate and shoots 80 plus percent from the line.

Though Cabarrot isn’t a great defender, he has good size at six-foot-seven, and he is a good rebounder.

Cabarrot is a likely minimum candidate, but how many six-foot-seven guys who shot 39 percent in the previous season are available on the open market?
