2016-17 team: 76ers, Mavericks
Potential landing spots: Mavericks, Nets, Blazers, Celtics

Derrick Rose, PG
2016-17 team: Knicks
Potential landing spots: Knicks, Spurs, Wolves, Bucks

Tyreke Evans, G/F
2016-17 team: Pelicans, Kings

Nikola Mirotic, F*
2016-17 team: Bulls
Potential landing spots: Bulls, Wolves, Mavs
One thing to know: The Bulls can match any offer for Mirotic, but after drafting stretch big man Lauri Markkanen, the streaky-shooting Mirotic could be on the move for a team looking for a stretch big.
Shabazz Muhammad, G/F*
2016-17 team: Wolves
Potential landing spots: Wolves, Nets, 76ers, Wizards, Mavs
