Justin Dentmon
Texas Legends
The Rundown: One of the best pure scorers -- and volume shooters -- in league history, Dentmon can ignite an entire offense by himself.

The Reason to Call Him Up Now: He made two trips to the NBA in 2011-12 and spent Summer League with the Legends, so he's seen what's expected of an NBA point guard. And now that a hamstring injury that held him down in the first half of the year is healed, he's back to ripping through defenses like junk mail.

The Risk: Dentmon drives to the hoop a ton, and against 7-footers, that often means a swatted shot and transition bucket the other way. With his 3-point shot coming around of late, it'll free up more of the mid-range for pull-up jumpers, but his game still needs more of a distribution angle.
