In the movie Suicide Squad, high-ranking government official Amanda Waller recruits a group of imprisoned supervillains in order to execute a series of black ops missions. It’s a story about anti-heroes, about cast-offs who still give you a reason to root for them. It’s not dissimilar to a lot of NBA players we irrationally fall in love with despite all of their flaws, or whatever circumstances it may be that prevents them from realizing their full potential.

With this concept in mind, we decided to assemble our own 2016-17 NBA Suicide Squad. Here are their dossiers:
