Summary

NBA Free agency is the talk of the town. Longtime Warrior Klay Thompson is leaving Golden State after an extraordinary career there, but will look to compete for a title with the Mavericks. Free agency also got a hold of Paul George, Isaiah Hartenstein, Donovan Mitchell, and Chris Paul after their new contracts. Meanwhile, the Celtics are reportedly planning to sell their team, and Charlotte Wilder wanted the first bid. We also play another round of Heat Check to see how some teams are projected to perform next year after the recent wave of free-agent signings. Learn more about your ad choices.
