The NBA offseason is officially in full swing, with free agency kicking off on Sunday night at 6 p.m. ET. This means that players can finally begin negotiating with any team in the league, and deals can be agreed upon. However, contracts cannot be signed until the moratorium ends on July 6 at 12:01 p.m. ET.
There are several big names to watch in this year’s free agency, including LeBron James, who is a free agent and is expected to re-sign with the Lakers. After drafting his son, Bronny, in the recent NBA Draft, James may take a pay cut to allow the Lakers to make other moves, such as potentially bringing in Klay Thompson from the Warriors.
Another major free agent to watch is Paul George, who opted out of his contract with the Clippers and could be looking to sign with a new team. While the Clippers are still in the running to bring George back, other teams like the 76ers and Magic are also reportedly interested in signing him.
In addition to George and Harden, there are many other top free agents that will be available this offseason, including Kevin Durant and Kawhi Leonard. Each player will have their own unique set of options and priorities when it comes to making a decision about where they will play next season.
As deals begin to be made during this year’s NBA free agency period, we can expect this tracker to update regularly with details on each agreement reached between players and teams. Stay tuned for more updates on all of the latest news surrounding NBA free agency!
