8 players who may be abandoned by the team after the playoffs: Wiggins leads, and Possus becomes a substitute
3:50pm, 18 May 2025【Basketball】
On May 16, with the deepening of the NBA playoffs, the league has now confirmed the quota for the division finals. Many teams that are not favored have achieved unexpected results this season rely on the excellent performance of the players. Many of them have achieved value because of their poor performance. Some players have lost their value after the playoffs. After the playoffs, these 8 players may be given up by the team.
Wiggins

Wiggins performed well in the regular season, averaging 19 points per game. In the playoffs, Spoobbon planned to reuse it. As a result, Wiggins seemed to have won the thermos again. The offensive end was very inefficient and did not have the level of a star. It is estimated that Riley would regret getting him through the trade now. If he had known this, it would be better to get Kumingga! Wiggins averaged 11.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.3 blocks in the playoffs, with a shooting percentage of 37% and a three-point shooting percentage of 35%. Wiggins is just a blue-collar worker and cannot be the core.
Garland

Garland's performance in the playoffs is disappointing. The Cavaliers ranked first in the league in the regular season this season, but they were swept out by their opponent's gentleman in the second round of the playoffs. Although injuries are the main reason for the loss, Garland's negative effect after playing is also speechless. After he comes on, his opponent will name him, and the offensive end also accounts for Mitchell's ball rights. His role and Mitchell have some conflicts. The Cavaliers' salary explodes next season and may send him away. They average 18 points, 2.2 rebounds, 5.2 assists per game in the playoffs, with a shooting percentage of 42%, and 28% of three-pointers.
Kuzma

Kuzma performed well in the regular season. Even because of his outstanding performance in the Wizards, the Bucks thought he would be the best candidate for the third core of the team. As a result, they misunderstood. Kuzma not only has bad offensive ends, but also has bad defense ends in the playoffs, but also often makes low-level mistakes. Even old people can do nothing, sometimes they choose to abandon him. Kuzma averaged 5.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game in the playoffs, and shot 34% from the field. Next season, no matter whether the letter stays in the team or not, it feels like the Bucks will not keep him, which is too premium.
Porzingis

The winning of last season made everyone ignore Porzingis's fragility and softness. He only made a comeback in the finals last season. He only played 6 games in the playoffs. It can be said that his teammates dragged him to win the championship. This season, Porzingis has been using the reason to be sick to cover up his poor performance. To be honest, even if he is not sick, he probably can't play well. Facing the inside line of Towns at the level of the inside, he can't defend at all, and has been absent in the regular season. In the offseason, the Celtics want to reduce their expenses, and the Pope is likely to leave the team, averaging 8.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1 steal per game.
Bain

Bain played at the top 3D level in the regular season, and even star-level 3D performance. In the playoffs, he thought he could continue his previous performance, but in the face of the Thunder's high-intensity defense, his performance was very bad, averaging 15.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and his shooting percentage was only 31.7%. Now Pippen is rising, and Bain has a five-year contract with an average salary of over 38 million. In this case, the Grizzlies may have sent him away as soon as possible, but it is not easy to send him away at such a premium, and they may have to take advantage of the top player.
Port Jr.

Porter Jr. has been playing with shoulder injury so far, and his performance is not ideal. In fact, Porter Jr. has not performed well in the playoffs in the past few years. The reason why he has been able to stay in the Nuggets is because he has a good game with Jokic, has excellent off-ball ability, and can open up space. However, if he doesn't make a shot, no matter how much space he can open up, it will be useless. Porter Jr. is also a big contract. As early as the regular season of this season, the Nuggets wanted to send him away. If he cannot win the championship this season, the Nuggets will inevitably change. They averaged 9.3 points and 5.8 rebounds per game in the playoffs, and their shooting percentage was only 38%.
Kuminga

The reason why Kuminga was given up by the team is not that he is not capable, but that he wants a big contract. At the same time, his playing style is not in line with Curry, and he cannot adapt to the Warriors' small ball system. In this case, Kuminga is likely to be sent away. The Warriors want to use him to sign first and then exchange. Kuminga averages 15.3 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game in the playoffs, with a shooting percentage of 48%, and has excellent offensive efficiency. Many rebuilding teams are interested in him, such as the Bulls and the Nets. I hope he can go to a team that gives him a chance.
Da Luo

Da Luo is a complete free agent in the offseason. At his peak, Da Luo is the best 3B center in the league, with three-pointers + rim protection. However, as he grows older, Da Luo has no peak level now, three-point shooting efficiency has declined, and defense has become an ATM. Therefore, the Bucks are likely not to keep him. He may get a mini middle class to join other teams. Da Luo is averaging 5 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1 block in the playoffs, and his shooting percentage is only 36%. Because he has played for too little, he averaged only 14.8 minutes per game and was abandoned most of the time.
