Contract: One year, $3.3 million

In what projects to be the most expensive roster in NBA history, the Phoenix Suns needed to find a new backup center to not only replace free agent Drew Eubanks, but serve as an upgrade while playing on a veteran minimum contract as well.

Phoenix succeeded with the signing of Plumlee, who is bigger, more athletic and a better passer than his predecessor.

Capable of soaking up all of the non-Jusuf Nurkić minutes, the 34-year-old Plumlee still has plenty of bounce in his step. He can play off Devin Booker, Kevin Durant or Bradley Beal in the pick-and-roll and feasts off second-chance opportunities with his 6’10”, 254-pound frame. He’s become quite good at hiding in the dunkers spot, waiting for drive-and-dish opportunities from teammates.
