Eddie Jones
Eddie Jones was selected 10th overall by the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1994 NBA Draft. During his time with the Lakers, he was a key part of the team’s success, making two All-Star appearances. In 1999, he was traded to the Charlotte Hornets, where he continued to thrive, earning another All-Star selection.
In 2000, Jones was traded to the Miami Heat, where he remained until 2005. While with the Heat, he was named to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team in 2005.
Jones’s 14-year career totals include 14,155 points, 3,857 rebounds, and 1,620 steals. He was known as a strong perimeter defender, leading the league in steals in the 1999-2000 season, and was named to the NBA All-Defensive team three times.

Garrett Temple
Garrett Temple was undrafted out of LSU in the 2009 NBA Draft but worked his way into the league and has developed an impressive 13-year career as a journeyman.
He has played for multiple NBA teams (11 in total), including the Houston Rockets, Sacramento Kings, Memphis Grizzlies, Los Angeles Clippers, Washington Wizards, and Brooklyn Nets. His role has primarily been as a defensive specialist and a veteran presence in the locker room.
He’s been a key contributor on many of the teams he’s played on and has even started in almost 300 games in his career.
Lance Stephenson
Selected in the second round of the 2010 NBA Draft by the Indiana Pacers, Lance Stephenson spent the first four seasons of his career in Indiana. His best season came in 2013-14 when he averaged 13.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game, and led the NBA in triple-doubles (5).
He was a significant contributor to the Pacers teams that made back-to-back Eastern Conference Finals appearances in 2013 and 2014.
Stephenson later played for several other teams, including the Hornets, Clippers, Grizzlies, Pelicans, and Lakers. Despite bouncing around the league, his dynamic playstyle and sometimes flamboyant on-court antics have made him a memorable figure in the NBA.
