3. Thanasis Antetokounmpo 

This one isn’t so much about improving the team as it is about getting rid of a joke that’s gone on for far too long.

Even non-basketball fans know that Thanasis’s best quality is his last name and other intangibles that don’t translate to the basketball court. Antetokounmpo averaged 0.9 points, 0.4 rebounds, and 0.5 assists in 4.6 minutes per game this season.

His roster spot could be better used on a rookie or another unproven player who has at least SOME shot at developing into a significant role player. 

The experiment is over. It’s time to get rid of Thanasis.
