Probably a matchup between Milsap and Hayward. I will lean a bit towards Hayward. Milsap was really solid with Atlanta for those few years. Hayward was trending upward as a player I believe, but that injury set him back some steps.

Hayward. It's not really his fault because the injury really derailed him, but if it's just a question of who is the worst on that list, it's him.

Millsap was at least a major guy on the 60 win Hawks team that made the ECF. Hayward's never really even hit that level, although it's largely injury.

It does seem impossible John Wall isn't on this list. He has the worst contract in the league.

Gordon Hayward was suppose to be a super star. Injured first year, didn’t even start second year, and this year is averaging 17ppg

probably millsap but he was so damn cheap and underpaid for so long that i'm glad he's getting paid.

He's on a team with 4 potential All-Star caliber players. He's not going to average 25 with as much talent is on that team. He's averaging 17.3/6.7/4.1 on .504 FG% and .392 3PT%. He is the most efficient of their top 4 offensive threats and is probably their best playmaker outside of Kemba.

His first year was obviously completely wasted as he played all of 5 minutes. Last year was a mixed bag with most of it being disappointing.

This year he has struggled a bit with some nagging things with the foot and also missed time because Aldridge broke his hand on a hard screen, but he's been arguably the Celtics best player when healthy.

He does a lot of things off ball that don't show up in stat sheets that help facilitate plays for his teammates. I'd say this year the Celtics are getting their value out of him. Obviously over the course of the contract they did not, but that was a freak accident.

If we do this list again next year, they need to have Kyrie on it. Missed the 2018 playoffs with injury. Derailed the 2018 season and quit in the playoffs. Missed most of this season and now out for the remainder of the season.

Milsap or mike Conley

Millsap is a 35yr old who’s averaged 12pts over 27 minutes the last 3 years

Conley missed just about all of 2017 and is currently sub 40fg

Hayward on the other hand is flirting with the illustrious 50/40/90 slash on a top 5 team

I can’t believe Conley is still playing b-ball.

Just read an article that Dwayne Wade “only” pulled in $120 million in his entire 16 year career.

It’s a tremendous amount of money but compared to this list I mean Jesus.
