Former Boston Celtics Sixth Man of the Year Malcolm Brogdon is still on the free agency market. There will likely be a few teams that show interest in him over the next few weeks to months, as he’s expected to sign soon, considering the current state of the free agency market. 

However, Brogdon isn't exactly the perfect player, and it's tough to find the ideal fit for him on a contender. 

According to a recent report from Jake Fischer, his last hope of joining a contender may be with the Golden State Warriors or the Minnesota Timberwolves. 

According to Hoops Rumors, Fischer stated that the Timberwolves and Warriors could be potential landing spots, giving him two teams he might want to play for, unless he prefers a guaranteed spot. 

“The Bucks likely won’t pursue Brogdon after landing Cole Anthony, but Fischer said there’s still plenty of interest around the league in the veteran guard. Along with the Kings, he names the Pelicans, Timberwolves and Warriors as potential landings spots for Brogdon, who appeared in 24 games with Washington last season,” they wrote.

Brogdon would likely be a backup in Minnesota and Golden State, barring anything drastic happening. 

However, he’d also have to work for that spot, as both teams want to contend. 

If he took a deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, he’d be in a bit of a different situation.

The Warriors haven't done anything this offseason, and many are starting to question whether they have a chance to make the postseason next year due to the lack of talent on their roster. 

Brogdon would help with that, but he isn't a needle mover by any means.
