Answers to the NBA HoopGrids puzzle for August 23

Answers to Cells 1-3 are here.

Kelly Oubre Jr., Marcin Gortat and Ish Smith are best fits for Cell 4. All three had a chance to don the Phoenix Suns and Washington Wizards jerseys.

Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton are the easy choices for Cell 5. They have had multiple seasons hitting 15+ PPG. Rex Chapman might be a name some fans are not familiar with. He played four seasons with the Suns and also had several seasons with 15+ PPG.

At least 10 players wore No. 30 for the Phoenix Suns. Some of them were Fred Saunders, Ron Lee, Nick Vanos, Clifford Robinson and Earl Barron. They’re great options for Cell 6.

Some of Michael Jordan’s teammates during the 2001-02 season with the Washington Wizards were Jahidi White, Richard Hamilton, Brendan Haywood, Hubert Davis, Etan Thomas, Popeye Jones and Tyronn Lue. Any of them will be great for Cell 7.

For Cell 8, Scottie Pippen and Toni Kukoc are popular answers. They were former teammates of Jordan who hit 15+ PPG in a season several times. Rod Higgins is probably not so well-known as an answer here. Higgins and Jordan were teammates for two seasons in Chicago. The journeyman forward hit the 15 PPG just once in his career, which was in Golden State.

Will Perdue wore jersey No. 32 with the Chicago Bulls and was once Michael Jordan’s former teammate. He’s a great answer for Cell 9. Steve Engler (#34), Steve Johnson (#34), Caldwell Jones (#39) and Jawann Oldham (#33) were on the roster in Jordan’s rookie season with the Bulls. They’re also great options here.
