The NBA offseason has begun.
Before last offseason, the 2021 NBA free-agent class was seen as potentially historic. LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Paul George, Rudy Gobert and Jrue Holiday were expected to be available. Instead, they all signed contract extensions with their existing teams, drastically reducing the star power in this class.
This summer, Chris Paul, Kawhi Leonard, Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan were at the head of the free-agent class.
Only five teams were projected to have significant cap space this summer, with the New York Knicks leading the way with up to $50 million available. With the free-agent landscape drastically altered from what it was expected to be, we could see another busy offseason of trades.
No matter what happens, we’ll have all the latest news, rumors, buzz and analysis right here.
