8. Isaiah Canaan
Since leaving the Windy City, Isaiah Canaan has become a bit of journeyman, struggling to find an organization that will keep him for the entirety of a regular season.
Canaan gained consistent minutes early on during his time with the Bulls only to find them reduced as the season carried on. He would fall out of the regular rotation.
Canaan started this past season with the Toronto Raptors only to leave and play for the Phoenix Suns, a team with a need for point guard depth. Things didn’t work out there, either. Upon release, Canaan played seven games with the Minnesota Timberwolves and four games with the Milwaukee Bucks.
Canaan’s longest stint with a team dates back to the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 seasons when he played with the Philadelphia 76ers.
Throughout his career, Canaan has played for several teams, including the Houston Rockets, Bucks, 76ers, Suns and Timberwolves.
At 6-feet tall, Canaan’s size tends to raise question marks. The league and its athletes have only gotten bigger, faster and stronger over the years. Is there still a place for small guards in today’s game? Only time will tell, I suppose.
It remains unclear if Canaan will find a new spot on an NBA roster during free agency.
