A surprise free agent signing, Al Jefferson came with a large paycheck and large expectations, and while Charlotte has not become a power in the East, Jefferson has certainly done his part to make the team as competitive as he could. In his first season with Charlotte, he would average a double-double and would make Third Team All-NBA.

That was Jefferson's best year with Charlotte, though his second season was still decent, with the Center averaging 16.9 Points per Game, but his play dropped off aferward and he would leave for Indiana in the 2016 off-season.
