Every offseason in the NBA is the best time for each team to strengthen, and free agents in the offseason are undoubtedly the most popular. Because signing a free agent is one of the quickest and most effective ways to strengthen a team. Then again, though, not all free agent signings are successful. In the NBA there are also some player-only signings that have failed, so the question is, in the last decade there have been those who have failed only players to sign that? No, just when the famous and famous sports media BR gave a list of 14 worst free agent signings in the past decade. Let's take a look at who is on this list of 14 people.
Five: Evan Turner
Evan Turner did well in 2015-16, and this season Evan Turner played in 82 games for the Celtics, averaging 10.5 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. He averaged 13.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game in the playoffs. To that end, in the summer of 2016, the Blazers signed Evan Turner for a four-year, $70 million deal. However, after signing this big contract, Evan Turner's strength has seriously declined, whether it is scoring, defense, or breakthrough, it is not worthy of his 4-year 70 million big contract.
Four: Biyongbo
In 2016, magic offered Billy Biyombo a four-year, $70 million contract. There is no doubt that the reason why the Magic offered this big contract for Biyongbo is very simple, that is, it looks at Biyongbo's defense. However, after signing this big contract, Biyongbo's physical fitness declined seriously, and when he was on the court, the team's net score dropped by 7.2 points. To this end, just two years after signing this contract, Billyon Bo was traded to the Hornets.
Three: Ian Masimi
The Wizards signed Ian Maschinmi for 4 years and $64 million in 2016. Truth be told, Ian Mahinmi did well in 2015-16, when he averaged 9.3 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. Such a figure, with $64 million, is understandable. However, after arriving at the Wizards, Ian Mahinmi became a substitute player on the bench, averaging 5.6 points, 4.8 points and 4.1 points per game in the Wizards' three seasons.
Two: Parsons
The Grizzlies signed Parsons for four years, $96 million in 2016, and there's no doubt a healthy Parsons is worth the contract. However, Parsons is a glass-bodied player, and Parsons has been in "recuperation" since getting this big contract. Parsons played in 34 games for the Grizzlies in 2016–17, averaging 6.2 points per game. Parsons played in 26 games for the Grizzlies in 2017-18, averaging 7.9 points per game. He played in 25 games in the 2018–19 season, averaging 7.5 points per game. I have to say that such a salary of such data does respond to the words of the fans: "The Grizzlies really make stupid money more."
One: Timoffy Mozgov
In 2016, the Lakers signed Timoffy Mozgov to a four-year, $64 million contract. I have to say that this contract is indeed a mystery. You know, out of the 76 centers in 2015-16, Timofe Mozgov ranked 75 (second from the bottom) in plus-minus. More importantly, in the 2016-2017 season, there were 282 players who played at least 1,000 minutes, with Timofe Mozgov ranking 276th in plus-minus. It has to be said that it is indeed a bit incredible that such a player will be awarded a $64 million contract, which is the main reason why Timoffy Mozgov can appear first in this list.
In addition to these five players, there are 9 other signings:
The Pacers signed Solomon Hill for 4 years and 48 million in 2016
In 2016, the Cavaliers signed JR Smith for 4 years and 57 million
In 2015, the Cavaliers signed Knight for 5 years and 70 million
2016 Trail Blazers 4 years $75 million Alan Crabbe
In 2016, the Lakers signed Rohr Deng for 4 years and 72 million
In 2016, the Knicks signed Noah for 72 million in 4 years
In 2017, the Kings signed Randolph for 2 years and 24 million
The 76ers signed Horford for $109 million in 4 years in 2019
In 2018, the Rockets signed Paul for 4 years and $159.7 million
