NBA Free Agency: Best Available

- Luis Scola

The 6-9 Argentine is on the market after a successful 5-year stint in Houston. Scola has been Mr. Consistency for the Rockets, averaging a solid 14.5 ppg and 7.7 rebounds. However, he is 32 years old and seemingly past his prime.  Nonetheless, the Mavericks look like the frontrunners for nabbing Scola.

- OJ Mayo

Bench scoring is a key component to any successful NBA team, which is why Mayo is such a hot commodity in the free agent market. He's averaged 15 points for a Grizzlies team that made the playoffs twice during his 4-year tenure. His outside shooting touch and scoring prowess have intrigued many playoff teams, including the Lakers, Bulls and Mavericks.

- Courtney Lee

Lee has been a journeyman of sorts in short NBA career, playing for three different teams in only four NBA seasons. But he is still regarded as one of the better all-around sixth men in the league, along with Mayo. Lee provides tough work ethic and tenacious defense and the Celtics and Timberwolves are rumored to be interested.

- JaVale McGee

McGee quieted his critics with an outstanding playoff performance last season for the Nuggets. In return, he will be making a huge chunk of change this offseason.  His athleticism and shot-blocking ability make him the best remaining free agent in the market.  The Nuggets and Suns are reported frontrunners.
