NBA Free Agency: 5 Best fits for Jimmy Butler in 2019

#2 Philadelphia 76ers

The Sixers are on the right track to complete the process

Barring injuries, the Sixers should be a finals candidate in the near future. They have one of the best big-men in the game in Joel Embiid, 6-10 point guard and Rookie of the Year, Ben Simmons, and plenty of other young and impressive players.

But in a star-driven league like the NBA, adding another superstar could be the thing to give you the edge over your opponents.

Butler will fit perfectly with Philly; he won't step on Embiid's or Simmons' toes, he will upgrade their wing positions significantly, he can shoot from deep and will toughen their defense. Assuming the Sixers missed the Kawhi Leonard option, Butler might have the skill-set closest to his among available players in the market.

The development of young players like Fultz, Smith and Shamet will have a lot of influence on Butler's chances to join the Sixers, but under any circumstances, they should be very high on his list.
