Which Fading Star Is Most Likely To Survive Cuts?

It seems like Andray Blatche, with the Nets on a non-guaranteed deal, is a strong bet to make the team, since Tim Bontemps of the New York Post reported this week that "it's pretty clear" he'll be in coach Avery Johnson's rotation at the start of the season. Yet many other players on non-guaranteed contracts simply have their eyes on the last spot on the bench, much less significant playing time. As our list of non-guaranteed contracts shows, several former stars and wayward lottery picks are in training camps with teams this month, hoping they can revive their careers or at least draw another NBA paycheck.

Let us know which of the players listed below has the best shot to make his team's regular season roster. Feel free to refer to our roster counts for the Eastern and Western conferences if you want to get a better feel for their chances. If you think another marquee name on a make-good deal has a better shot than anyone listed here, click "none of the above" and let us know who you have in mind in the comments.
