NBA 2019-20: 5 Bloated contracts offered during free agency this offseason

#1 Terry Rozier - 3 years, $58 million

Terry Rozier

Taking the cake in terms of handing out bummer contracts are the Charlotte Hornets, who seem to take no lessons from past free agency blunders. You know, like offering Nicolas Batum a 5-year max deal (at the time), or throwing a 4-year contract to the way of defensive specialist Bismack Biyombo. At least this duo is worth giving limited minutes to, but their other 4-year contract from the summer of 2016 was handed to Marvin Williams, who is as good as washed at this point in his NBA career.

Terry Rozier showed flashes of promise during the Celtics' fairytale playoff run in 2018, but he is too inconsistent as a shooter and is somehow unpolished at finishing in the paint despite his strong frame and athleticism. He projects as a volume scorer who can get picked off on mismatches against bigger wing players regularly (as LeBron demonstrated in the Conference Finals).

In my opinion, Terry is overpaid by at least $8-10 million per season given his market value. That makes this the worst free agent signing of the summer.
