Free Agency Open Thread

The NBA is back! Free agency is the first step toward getting back on the court, and we’ve already seen a botched CP3-Lakers trade, Dwight Howard rumors swirling, and a dozen other agreements reached between teams and unrestricted players—all before the “official” start of the free agency period. That drops today, and while you can get the details on each individual story via the SLAM news feed, consider this the all-encompassing, streamlined forum for all things free agency. Below is a live list of every move, big or small, and we’ll be constantly updating this as new breaks over the next few days. So follow along as we digest all the craziness, and as we inch closer to Christmas Day.
