2017 NBA Manifesto
Marco Belinelli
SG, 6’5, 210lbs, 31 years old, 10 years of experience
The recipient of nearly 1,800 minutes, Belinelli shot pretty well from outside after an anomalous poor season the year prior. He is only as good as the team around him and needs setting up, not one for doing much of his own volition, especially defensively. But in being an effective catch-and-shoot player, Belinelli pretty much stood alone from the wing position for the Hornets. He hasn’t a huge amount of company on the Hawks, either, although the wing rotation has a lot of options if not much shooting. Belinelli has one more year under contract, and should be considered available to trade even with that short-term usefulness, be-cause he is a viable trade asset on a team with few.
Player Plan: One year at $6,606,000 remaining. As evidenced by the trade that brought him to Atlanta, he is not exactly a highly prized piece, for he was merely filler In that deal; that said, if there is some value to be found somewhere, take it.
