The free market is about to open, and it's quite lively, after all, there are a lot of big fish in the free market this year. Of course, before the free agency market opens, some players have already settled, and some players have to wait. On the other hand, there are some deals that appear. So what are the recent developments to watch? We can take a look. James officially confirmed that George officially announced the decision, Thompson has decided the overall situation, and the Suns have confirmed the signing.
James, as a top star in the league, is quite sought-after even at this age, and he has been greatly favored. Now James has officially confirmed two things. First, James jumped out of contract and became a free agent. As far as this is concerned, it was expected. After all, James wants to maximize his interests, and he also wants to contribute to the team. At this age, I still want to continue to challenge for the championship.
The second thing James confirmed. That is, willing to take a pay cut and contribute to the team's reinforcement. Judging from the information revealed, James is willing to make salary concessions in order to bring a veteran core like Harden or Thompson in. In fact, it is understandable that James also earns a lot off the court, and it is not impossible to get less on the annual salary at the end of his career. Of course, if there is no influence player Jaime, James has confirmed that he will seek a salary cap.
George still officially announced the decision, that is, to jump out of the contract. George must have had a team talking about this, or it has already been talked about. The Clippers are also very resolute, that is, they will not give a four-year contract. In fact, the team chasing George now is the 76ers who are the most fierce. Let's see what kind of contract the 76ers give and whether the Clippers will follow suit. In general, George has a shelf life of only two years, and later it will become a garbage contract.
Thompson became a free agent, and judging from the information gathered from various sources, Thompson's departure from the Warriors has been decided. The Warriors are preparing for the loss of Thompson and are also open to a sign-and-trade for Thompson. In addition, the Lakers, Clippers, and Mavericks are also strong contenders for Thompson. In any case, the current Thompson, who still has his own value, is to adjust his style of play. If you go to a new team, be prepared to be a point shooter.
The Suns didn't drag their feet in the offseason, and now they have confirmed a signing, that is, a four-year, 44 million contract with Royce O'Neal, the team's puzzle piece. As far as this contract is concerned, it is still quite a good deal. The Suns gave such a contract, and they also recognized O'Neal. For the Suns, the Big Three have one more season to work together. Therefore, this summer's action will be more frequent, so you can wait.
