The Free Agency has only just started, but there have already been a lot of deals. We have listed all transactions sorted by renewals, switches and trades.
Deals, deals, deals! After just six days, more than 70 players have agreed on a new contract with a team. Here is an overview of all deals.
NBA Free Agency Day 9: Overtime
Paul Reed (Center, 24, Sixers)
Deal: 3 years, $23 million
That’s a little surprise. The Sixers matched the offer sheet for Reed, drifting into the luxury tax. Only the first year is guaranteed, with Reed getting the next two years if the Sixers make it past the first round of the playoffs. That was a very cheeky Jazz offer sheet, but Philly went along with it.
NBA Free Agency Day 8: The changes
Dario Saric (Forward, 29) – From OKC to Golden State
Deal: 1 year, $2.7 million
Even before the free agency started there were rumors regarding Saric and the Warriors, these have now come true. The Croatian joins the 2022 champions for a year.
NBA Free Agency Day 7: Overtime
Dejounte Murray (Guard, 26, Hawks)
Deal: 4 years, up to $120 million
Contrary to all trade rumours, the Hawks have extended Murray’s contract, which expires in 2024, by four years to 2028. This is 111 million guaranteed, plus various bonuses that allow Murray to collect another 9 million.
Montrezl Harrell (Center, 29, Sixers)
Deal: 1 year, salary unknown
The Big Man didn’t exercise his player option but is now returning to the Sixers. It might also mean Philly RFA doesn’t hold Paul Reed, as the Sixers already have three centers in the roster in Joel Embiid, Harrell and recently signed Mo Bamba.
Matisse Thybulle (Guard, 26, Portland Trail Blazers)
Deal: 3 years, $33 million
The Blazers matched the Mavericks’ offer sheet, leaving Thybulle in Portland. The deal includes a player option for the third year of the contract, and the contract includes a 15 percent trade kicker.
EJ Liddell (Forward, 22, New Orleans Pelicans)
Deal: 3 years, $6.2 million
Liddell tore his cruciate ligament in Summer League last summer. This gives him security for his future, and in return the Pelicans hold a team option for the third year of his contract.
NBA Free Agency Day 7: The changes
Aaron Holiday (Guard, 26) – From Atlanta to Houston
Deal: 1 year, 2.3 million
Jrue Holiday’s younger brother signs a one-year minimum deal for the second summer in a row.
NBA Free Agency Day 6: The changes
Grant Williams (Forward, 24) – From Boston to Dallas
Deal: 4 years, $53 million
The Mavs part ways with Reggie Bullock for Williams, who goes to San Antonio in a three-team trade. The Spurs will also get a pick swap for 2030 from the Mavs.
Mo Bamba (Center, 25) – From the Lakers to Philadelphia
Deal: 1 year, $2 million
While the Sixers are looking to keep RFA Paul Reed, Bamba is additional insurance once morest possible injuries to Joel Embiid. Philly wants to start the season with three fives.
NBA Free Agency Day 4: Overtime
Anthony Edwards (Guard, 21, Minnesota Timberwolves)
Deal: 5 years, up to $260 million by 2029
That was just a formality. Former top pick Edwards was on the All-Star team for the first time last year, and the guard is now the face of the franchise, replacing Karl-Anthony Towns. It’s only logical that the Ant-Man got his maximum contract.
Mason Plumlee (Center, 33, L.A. Clippers)
Deal: 1 year, $6 million
Plumlee will remain with the Clippers and will thus also be Ivica Zubac’s backup in the coming season. The 33-year-old arrived via trade from Charlotte in February, where he was the starter for over a season.
NBA Free Agency Day 4: The changes
Dalano Banton (23, Guard) – From Toronto to Boston
Deal: 2 years, salary unknown
It will be a minimum contract for Banton, that’s all Boston can offer. At 2.06 meters, Banton is a tall guard who is a solid defender but can only throw the ball to a limited extent.
Malik Beasley (26, Guard) – Los Angeles to Milwaukee
Deal: 1 year, $2.7 million
The three-point shooter slipped out of the Lakers’ rotation in the playoffs and is now allowed to pull the trigger from the Bucks’ perimeter. The Lakers had let an option expire for 16.5 million.
Torrey Craig (32, Forward) – From Phoenix to Chicago
Deal: 2 years, $5.4 million
This is a small steal for the Bulls, who strengthen their wing defense with Craig and snatch a starter from the Suns.
Robin Lopez (35, center) – From Cleveland to Milwaukee
Deal: 1 year, $3.2 million
The Lopez brothers are reunited. Robin was already the representative of twin brother Brook in 2019/20, so it might be the case once more in the coming season.
NBA Free Agency Day 3: Overtime
Jordan Clarkson (Guard, 31, Utah Jazz)
Deal: 3 years, $55 million
After his career year 2022/23 (20.8 points, 4.4 assists), the Jazz keep their scoring microwave. Clarkson came off the bench for years, but can also do it in the starting five.
Miles Bridges (Forward, 25, Charlotte Hornets)
Deal: 1 year, $7.9 million
Bridges and the Hornets mightn’t agree on a long-term extension, so he signed the qualifying offer. This will make him an unrestricted free agent in 2024.
NBA Free Agency Day 3: The changes
Cory Joseph (31, Guard) – From Detroit to Golden State
With 7 points and 3.5 assists averaging for the Pistons, Joseph joins the Warriors guard rotation behind Curry, CP3 and Klay. There should be a few minutes left.
Patty Mills (34, Guard) – From Brooklyn to Oklahoma City
Deal: 1 year, $6.8 million
The expiring veteran is shipped to OKC in a three-team trade with the Rockets. The Thunder should even get draft picks to swallow his contract.
Cody Zeller (30, center) – From Miami to New Orleans
Deal: 1 year, $3.1 million
After a year in Miami, including participation in the finals, the Big Man is going to the Pelicans. There, too, he will do the dirty work under the basket once more.
Lonnie Walker IV (24, Guard) – From Los Angeles to Brooklyn
For the veteran minimum, Walker continues to migrate from the Lakers to the Nets. After the many commitments, there was no more room at the Lakeshow – but his brutal final quarter once morest the Warriors in Game 4 (15 points) will remain forever.
Justin Holiday (34, Guard) – Dallas to Denver
For the veteran it is already the tenth team of his career. The champion might not offer more than the minimum, which will be almost 3.2 million dollars.
NBA Free Agency Day 2: Overtime
Alex Len (Center, 30, Sacramento Kings)
Deal: 1 year, $3.2 million
The Kings hold their backup big, once more at the minimum. Len showed last year that he can at least give a few minutes in the regular season.
Russell Westbrook (Guard, 34, L.A. Clippers)
Deal: 2 years, $8 million
So yes: Westbrook is satisfied with the possible $ 3.8 million for the coming year and holds a player option for the year following.
Sandro Mamukelashvili (Center, 24, San Antonio Spurs)
Deal: 1 year, $2 million
There is the minimum for the Georgian, which is not surprising. Let’s see if he still plays for Spurs following Wembanyama’s arrival.
Domantas Sabonis (Center, 27, Sacramento Kings)
Deal: 5 years, $217 million
There’s the fat deal for the Lithuanian. The Kings took advantage of the new CBA and even gave Sabonis a raise for the coming year. So Sabonis collected 45 million dollars more than was possible for the coming years.
Moritz Wagner (Forward, 26, Orlando Magic)
Deal: 2 years, $16 million
The German stays with the Orlando Magic and can make further progress with the young team. Wagner averaged 10.5 points and 4.5 rebounds last season.
Dwight Powell (Center, 31, Dallas Mavericks)
Deal: 3 years, $12 million
The Mavs hold the veteran who is set to serve as a mentor for Dereck Lively II. Powell was last earning around $11 million a year, so it’ll be a lot cheaper for Dallas.
Jae Crowder (Forward, 32, Milwaukee Bucks)
After the deals for Middleton and Lopez, the Bucks got to the second apron. So they might only offer Crowder more than the minimum, although last season didn’t uproot any trees.
Brook Lopez (Center, 35, Milwaukee Bucks)
Deal: 2 years, $48 million
Milwaukee holds the core of the Championship team together. After the extension of Khris Middleton, the defensive anchor Lopez also remains – but the squad is now nibbling on the second apron.
Austin Reaves (Guard, 25, Los Angeles Lakers)
Deal: 4 years, $56 million
The Lakers might not offer more – but it was a small surprise that no other team has trumped this offer. Or did Reaves agree to a discount?
LaMelo Ball (Guard, 21, Charlotte Hornets)
Deal: 5 years, $260 million
The Rookie Max Extension for the point guard. A staggering total for a player who is… in the top 30 in the league? If any. But those are the current prices.
Trey Lyles (Forward, 27, Sacramento Kings)
Deal: 2 years, $16 million
The Kings keep the veteran who adds depth to the roster on the wing and under the basket.
D’Angelo Russell (Guard, 27, Los Angeles Lakers)
Deal: 2 years, $37 million
The Lakers are keeping their starting point guard, who gets a player option in year two. But the money might have been invested in Dennis Schröder…
NBA Free Agency Day 2: The changes
Donte DiVincenzo (26, Guard) – From Golden State to New York
Deal: 4 years, $50 million
The Villanova Connection strikes once more! After Jalen Houston and Josh Hart, DiVincenzo is the third NCAA champion of 2018 to come to the Big Apple.
Dillon Brooks (27, Forward) – Von Memphis nach Houston
Deal: 4 years, $80 million
Houston snaps up Brooks via sign-and-trade, perimeter not entirely clear yet. The Nets, Hawks and Clippers are also reportedly involved in addition to Memphis and Houston.
Jalen McDaniels (25, Forward) – From Philadelphia to Toronto
Deal: 2 years, $9.3 million
Long arms, athletic, a shaky throw – that sounds like a player for Toronto.
Jock Landale (27, Center) – Von Phoenix nach Houston
Deal: 4 years, $32 million
That’s a lot of ash for a backup at first glance, but only the first year of the contract is guaranteed. Someone had to get the Rockets’ capspace.
Jeff Green (Forward, 36) – From Denver to Houston
Deal: 1 year, $6 million
That surprises. Deciding not to stay in Denver, Green rejoins Houston, where he played in the 2019-20 season.
Max Strus (27, Guard) – From Miami to Cleveland
Deal: 4 years, $63 million
Payday! Strus, who impressed with the Miami Heat last season, is going to the Cavs. A three-team trade with the San Antonio Spurs makes it possible. The Spurs get Cedi Osman, Lamar Stevens and a second-round pick. The Heat also concede a second-round pick from the Cavs.
Sasha Vezenkov (27, Forward) – From Olympiacos to Sacramento
Deal: 3 years, $20 million
A small coup! The reigning EuroLeague MVP is a great shooter and makes the Kings even more dangerous.
Jaxson Hayes (23, center) – From New Orleans to Los Angeles
The 23-year-old free agent comes from the Pelicans and has signed for two years (player option in year 2). He’ll get the minimum with the Lakers.
Thomas Bryant (25, center) – From Denver to Miami
Bryant was traded from the Lakers to the Nuggets before the trade deadline and won the title there. Now the Heat continues, the second year of the contract includes a player option.
Vasilije Micic (29, Guard) – From Anadolu Efes to Oklahoma City
Deal: 3 years, $23.5 million
Who? The 29-year-old Serb has been playing for Anadolu Efes since 2018 and has won the EuroLeague twice with the team. In 2021 he was also MVP of the EuroLeague.
Dennis Smith Jr. (25, Guard) – From Charlotte to Brooklyn
What the former Mavericks will earn at the Nets is not yet known. According to Shams Charania, however, he was at the top of the wish list in Brooklyn.
NBA Free Agency Day 1: Overtime
Jerami Grant (Forward, 29, Portland Trail Blazers)
Deal: 5 years, $160 million
That’s a lot of stuff for Grant, but Portland also feels pressure from Damian Lillard. An average of 32 million per year is a bit too much for Grant
Draymond Green (Forward, 33, Golden State Warriors)
Deal: 4 years, $100 million
The sparrows whistled it from the rooftops, Green sticks to the dubs. The 33-year-old gets $ 100 million, the last year of the contract includes a player option.
Rui Hachimura (Forward, 25, Lakers)
Deal: 3 years, $51 million
It became apparent that Hachimura would stay following his strong playoffs – and so it happened. 51 million for three years may be a bit much, but that was the price for the Lakers to convince the Japanese.
Kyrie Irving (Guard, 31, Dallas Mavericks)
Deal: 3 years, $126 million
In the end, it was not a maximum contract for Irving, but the guard came out of his deal following two years. Here is the detailed news.
Reggie Jackson (Guard, 33, Denver Nuggets)
Deal: 2 years, $10 million
With the departure of Bruce Brown, the Guard for the Nuggets is looking pretty thin. Is Reggie Jackson the solution? The 33-year-old hardly played a role in the finals run, but now surprisingly receives more than the minimum.
Cam Johnson (Forward, 27, Brooklyn Nets)
Deal: 4 years, $108 million
108 million for Cam Johnson? You read that right. The 27-year-old was in demand, so the Nets had to stretch to keep the Team USA player. After all, this deal gives Brooklyn the winger’s prime.
Herb Jones (24, Forward, New Orleans Pelicans)
Deal: 4 years, $54 million
New Orleans might have kept Jones via team option for $1.8 million, but the Pels decided to keep the defensive specialist long-term. 54 million for four years was the maximum for Jones.
Tre Jones (23, Guard, San Antonio Spurs)
Deal: 2 years, $20 million
Jones did a good job as a starter on the one and gets good backup money for it. That should be his role for the future, so the deal is fair.
DeAndre Jordan (34, Center, Denver Nuggets)
Deal: 1 year, $3.2 million
As in the previous year, Jordan was one of the first reported signings, the center is particularly important for the dressing room, even if his influence on the field is rather small.
Kyle Kuzma (27, Forward, Washington Wizards)
Deal: 4 years, $102 million
Kuzma stays in DC – a surprise at first glance. Apparently no team was willing to put $20 million a year on the table, so Kuzma took the Wizards offer instead. Kuzma may then become a trade candidate once more in February.
Damion Lee (30, Guard, Phoenix Suns)
Deal: 2 years, $5.4 million
The Curry brother-in-law is a solid veteran who can scrub minutes in the regular season. That’s exactly what the Suns need, so Lee got another contract.
Caris LeVert (28, Guard, Cleveland Cavaliers)
Deal: 2 years, $32 million
It might have turned out worse for the Cavs, who are holding onto their sixth man. LeVert may not always impress, but he still has value for the team. 16 million on average is quite moderate.
Kevin Love (34, Center, Miami Heat)
Deal: 2 years, $7.8 million
That too was to be expected. Love was headed to Miami in February and lived up to his role there as best he might.
Khris Middleton (31, Forward, Milwaukee Bucks)
Deal: 3 years, $102 million
This is also very fair for both sides. Middleton waived his $40 million player option in favor of a longer deal with less money on average. That takes the pressure off the Bucks’ books.
Josh Okogie (24, Forward, Phoenix Suns)
Deal: 1 year, $2.3 million
Okogie had good moments, he’s a good defender and one of the best rebounders from the small positions. It makes sense that Phoenix thinks Okogie is a dime a dozen.
Jakob Pöltl (27, Center, Toronto Raptors)
Deal: 4 years, $80 million
It’s a good thing for Pöltl. 20 million a year is starter money and the Wiener is exactly that.
Coby White (23, Guard, Chicago Bulls)
Deal: 3 years, $33 million
Is Coby White good? We don’t know for sure, but as a microwave it certainly has value. 33 million for three years is quite appropriate here.
NBA Free Agency Day 1: The changes
Keita Bates-Diop (27, Forward) – From San Antonio to Phoenix
Deal: 2 years, $5 million
This might be a small steal for the Suns. Bates-Diop is a very versatile defender whose shot has improved over the years. He may even be the fifth starter in the coming season.
Bruce Brown (26, Guard) – From Denver to Indiana
Deal: 2 years, $45 million
Wow! The Pacers did the right thing with their capspace, overpaying for a solid player without really sacrificing anything. Year two is a team option, so the damage is limited if Brown fails. For the nuggets, that’s a big blow.
Troy Brown Jr. (23, Guard) – From the Lakers to Minnesota
Deal: 2 years, $8 million
Minnesota gets some help for the wing. Brown is athletic and can do something with the ball. He didn’t really make it in LA, but it’s worth a try for the Wolves.
Jevon Carter (27, Guard) – From Milwaukee to Chicago
Deal: 3 years, $20 million
Carter and Alex Caruso in a backcourt? No opponent likes to see that. The Bulls secure another defensive specialist for the build-up. That’s a good deal.
Seth Curry (32, Guard) – Von Brooklyn nach Dallas
Deal: 2 years, $9.2 million
Curry is now signing in Dallas for the third time, let’s see if the shooter lasts longer than a year this time. Basically it is the small version of the traded Davis Bertan.
Drew Eubanks (26, Center) – From Portland to Phoenix
Deal: 2 years, $5 million
Eubanks is likely to be something of a Landale replacement who, surprisingly, won’t get an offer from the Suns. Started some time in Portland in the absence of Jusuf Nurkic and should give Phoenix decent minutes.
Joe Ingles (35, Forward) – From Milwaukee to Orlando
Deal: 2 years, $22 million
Well, who were the Magic actually bidding once morest here? It doesn’t really matter since Orlando still had capspace to use up. As a veteran, Ingles will certainly do the team good.
Chimezie Metu (26, Forward) – From Sacramento to Phoenix
Deal: 1 year, $2.5 million
Another good under-the-radar move for the Suns, who bring another athletic forward to the roster. Will fight for rotation minutes.
Shake Milton (26, Guard) – From Philadelphia to Minnesota
Deal: 2 years, $10 million
Another guard for the Wolves, they might use that. Milton might definitely deliver in a bigger role.
TAUREAN PRINCE | Age: 28 | Stats 21/22: 7.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists at 45.4 percent FG and 37.6 percent threes in 17.1 minutes (69 games) | Salary 22/23: $7.3M (contract until 2024)
Georges Niang (29, Forward) – From Philadelphia to Cleveland
Deal: 3 years, $26 million
The minivan brings shooting but isn’t the small forward the Cavs need. For the price, the move is still okay and also weakens a direct competitor.
Taurean Prince (29, forward) – From Minnesota to the Lakers
Deal: 1 year, $4.5 million
A 3-and-D specialist alongside LeBron James? What might possibly go wrong? Seriously, Prince should be a solid rotation player for the Lakers. This is a loss for Minnesota, who let it go for financial reasons.
Cam Reddish (23, Forward) – From Portland to the Lakers
Deal: 2 years, $4.6 million
Reddish is another attempt by the Lakers, similar to Malik Monk or Lonnie Walker in previous years. Whether the athletic wing with a shaky throw suits the Lakers remains to be seen.
Josh Richardson (29, Guard) – From New Orleans to Miami
Deal: 2 years, $5.9 million
A real steal. Richardson reportedly gave up money to return to Miami, where he was having the best time of his career. Good 3-and-D guard that fits Coach Erik Spoelstra’s concept.
Derrick Rose (34, Guard) – From New York to Memphis
Deal: 2 years, $6.5 million
Does D-Rose have anything left in the tank? At least the guard now comes full circle, since he was active in college for the Memphis Tigers.
Dennis Schröder (29, Guard) – From the Lakers to Toronto
Deal: 2 years, $26 million
2021 and 2022 didn’t go well in free agency, this time it worked. Toronto was suddenly without a point guard and so Schröder had another payday. Although the direction of the Raptors is still questionable, the German will not care for the time being.
Fred VanVleet (29, Guard) – From Toronto to Houston
Deal: 3 years, $130 million
The only maximum contract of the day! The Rockets even added a year to secure the services of the ex-All-Star, who is the first undrafted player to sign a $100 million contract. With his mentality, he should also be able to help the young players.
Gabe Vincent (26, Guard) – From Miami to the Lakers
Deal: 3 years, $33 million
Schröder’s role at the Lakers will now be filled by Gabe Vincent, who is a slightly better shot than the German. He also gets the full mid-level exception and should go well with the Lakers’ style with his bite.
Yuta Watanabe (28, Forward) – From Brooklyn to Phoenix
Deal: 1 year, $2.3 million
Last year, Watanabe played with Durant in Brooklyn – and hit every threesome from the corner. The Japanese will now try this in Phoenix.
NBA Free Agency, Tag 1: Die Extensions
Desmond Bane (25, Guard, Memphis Grizzlies)
Deal: 5 years, $207 million
In 2020, Bane was the 30th pick, now he gets the biggest contract in Grizzlies history. This Max deal wasn’t a home run, but in the end Bane got it.
Kristaps Porzingis will play for the Boston Celtics next season.
Tyrese Haliburton (23, Guard, Indiana Pacers)
Deal: 5 years, up to $260 million
With Haliburton, on the other hand, it was pretty clear. Like Bane, the point guard is guaranteed $207 million. If he makes it to an All-NBA team next year, it will be 260 million.
Kristaps Porzingis (27, Center, Boston Celtics)
Deal: 2 years, $60 million
As expected, the Celtics have extended Porzingis and have now tied the Latvian until 2026. In return, the Big Man even accepted a small salary cut from 2024. Quite a good deal for the Celtics, of course always linked to the question of whether Porzingis will stay fit.
