Believe it or not, the start of 2023 NBA free agency is right around the corner. And with the vast majority of the league already in offseason mode, it's time for us hoops heads to start seriously thinking about it.

And what better way to do prep for #TransactionSeason than by cobbling together an ambitious free-agency target for every single team?

Bleacher Report's Grant Hughes and Dan Favale will be your guides throughout this tour. And just so we're clear, "ambitious" doesn't mean batcrap bonkers.

Salary-cap sheets and spending power for every squad will be taken into account. We're either looking at the best player a team can hope to land outright or proposing sign-and-trade hypotheticals where it's both feasible and appropriate.

Our one other ground rule: Every free agent will only be selected once. Variety's the spice of life and all that.

To the Ambitiousness Indulger 5000!

Atlanta Hawks: Kevin Love

The Atlanta Hawks may have the green light to improve the roster from ownership, but financial constraints, including a payroll projected to be eight figures above the luxury tax, will limit their options. The team's willingness to spend could also take a hit after possible rookie-scale extensions for Onyeka Okongwu and Saddiq Bey.

If Atlanta uses its taxpayer midlevel exception, it should prioritize a frontcourt shooter who can improve its 30th-ranked long-range attempt rate. Head coach Quin Snyder's Utah Jazz teams routinely ranked in the top 10 in three-point frequency, which suggests he'd know what to do with a sniper at the 4.

Kevin Love, a rare buyout player to make a major impact on his new team, is frequently starting for the indefatigable Miami Heat in the 2023 playoffs. Due to turn 35 in September, Love is limited defensively but has managed to stay on the floor year after year on the strength of his offensive game. A career 37.0 percent shooter from distance and still a brilliant passer and defensive rebounder, Love could give Atlanta everything it needs in a 20-minute-per-game reserve, pairing perfectly with either Clint Capela or Okongwu up front.

Assuming Atlanta finally moves John Collins, there should be plenty of minutes available.
