Jordan Hill's free agency comes at a tricky time, which makes finding him a suitable destination complicated.
In June, the Los Angeles Lakers set him free by declining the final year and $9 million of his contract. With many teams happily throwing around moderate to severe overpays on multiyear offers (thanks to the rising cap that will make almost any contract seem like a bargain in coming summers), Hill, a 6'10" forward coming off a career season, looked to be in a good spot.
Hill's counting numbers last season—12 points and 7.9 rebounds— were his best ever, and they came in the largest sample of playing time he'd ever had in a season.
