#2 Dragan Bender

Dragan Bender stands at over seven feet tall and is able to play both the power forward and center positions. His physical size and ability to shoot the ball made him an exciting International prospect in the 2016 NBA draft, and the Suns opted to take him with the fourth overall pick.

However, despite the huge amount of hype surrounding the big man, Bender has failed to demonstrate he can be a long-term success in the NBA. The Croatian is currently in his third season with the Suns and he's only played 11 times this term, averaging 2.1 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.

Averaging less than ten minutes per game, he has offered little in return for his $4.6m salary. His deal is set to expire next summer and the Suns are likely to let him go.
