8. CJ McCollum — New Orleans Pelicans

Teams miscasting shooting guards is a common theme around the NBA. Due to the lack of a true point, the Pelicans have used CJ McCollum in that spot during his time in New Orleans. McCollum can run the show in spurts but truly shines as an off-guard. The former Blazer is a knockdown shooter among the league’s elite. Since 2021, nine players have averaged at least 8 three-point attempts per game. Only two are shooting above 40-percent on threes — McCollum and Stephen Curry. His play has dipped in the postseason, but adding a true point guard in Dejounte Murray should help everybody in New Orleans.
