NBA Free Agency

Greg Monroe and the Detroit Pistons may not be headed for a divorce. Of all the NBA’s impending free agents, Monroe has long been considered the consummate flight risk, and for good reason.

Of the few high-profile NBA free-agent flight risks that are must-watch case studies entering the 2015 offseason, LaMarcus Aldridge has never been one of them. Not since last summer at least. It was then that it became clear he wanted to remain with the Portland Trail Blazers. They were on the up and up following [...]

Welp, here we are, at the end of another NBA regular season, preparing for a postseason gauntlet that, for the first time in five years, won’t include the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The New York Knicks are already zeroing on their free-agent consolation prizes. Big names like LaMarcus Aldridge, Marc Gasol, Goran Dragic, Kevin Love and Paul Millsap are tossed around haphazardly when it comes to the Knicks’ offseason plans.

Here we go again. For the umpteenth time. Rajon Rondo and the Los Angeles Lakers have been linked to one another for a while now. The former is going to be an unrestricted free agent; the latter is in the market for superstars who can both get along with Kobe Bryant and usher in the [...]

Rajon Rondo will hit unrestricted free agency this summer, at which point he’ll be paid handsomely, signing a contract that could be worth upwards of $100 million. And he doesn’t care. Not right now at least. Rumors pertaining to Rondo’s free agency abound. Though the Dallas Mavericks can offer him more money than any other [...]

Lionel Hollins is not counting down the days until Brook Lopez leaves in free agency. It’s just the opposite.
