Another NBA season has come and gone – seemingly in the blink of an eye – but that only means it is now time for the off season and all of the excitement and potential surprises it could bring.

The NBA free agency period began on Thursday, June 30th at 6pm, and will continue through July 6th. Why is this an important time period in the NBA? Free agency is a special time during the offseason where teams may not sign free agents or make trades. Instead, they may negotiate deals or verbal agreements.

Players may not sign these deals until the end of the period, 12:01PM on July 6th according to the NBA’s website.

Any discussion or negotiations made between players and teams are not in any way binding, and either can back out of negotiations prior to the signing. So, what have we seen so far during this period? Let’s take a closer look:
