Dante Cunningham ($2.10 Million)

When he was rumored to sign with the Timberwolves earlier this offseason, it was reported Dante Cunninghamwould not take the NBA minimum salary for next season. But as the market has dried up, it seems this may be his only option.

Although he declined his player option from the Pelicans to become an unrestricted free agent, Cunningham could be an interesting fit to return to New Orleans for cheaper than expected. He played 25 minutes per game and shot a career-high 39.2 percent from long distance.

His field goal percentage last year was also the best it had been since the 2011-12 season.

Gerald Green ($2.32 Million)

Last season, Gerald Green started seven games in the postseason for the Celtics. Whilehe may return to Boston, the Pelicans could be another fit for his services.

The 31-year-old wingman has averaged 9.6 points per game during his 10-season career. Though he is not the same player he once was in the NBA, he can still step on the floor and play for New Orleans next season with Hill no longer ready due to injury.

It may not be an ideal situation for either side, but one that could realistically make sense for the Pelicans.

Iman Shumpert ($10.3 Million)

The least likely – but most exciting option – to replace Hill next season would be Iman Shumpert from the Cleveland Cavaliers.
