Day 2 update: While the NBA waits on The Decision 4.0 to learn where LeBron James will play next season, some of the other top free agents are coming off the board quickly. Norman Powell has agreed to join the Chicago Bulls, Marcus Smart is going to the Houston Rockets, and Luke Kennard is on board with the Phoenix Suns. The Philadelphia 76ers made a sneaky-good signing by locking in Dean Wade to fill their hole at power forward, as well. Does John Collins help the Pistons? They obviously think so after getting him on a three-year deal. All eyes are the Los Angeles Lakers today to see how they will continue to build around Luka Doncic. We’ll be updating this post with signings and trades all day long.
Live NBA free agent signings 2026 for every deal and trade this summer
Let’s track every NBA free agent signing and trade this summer.
Ricky O'Donnell has covered basketball at all levels for more than a decade at SB Nation. He’s currently the Associate Director of Programming.
NBA free agency always feels like more of a sprint than a marathon, and the offseason action is already well underway as the moratorium lifts on Tuesday evening. Ja Morant is now on the Portland Trail Blazers in a deal no one could have seen coming. Giannis Antetokounmpo is suddenly a member of the Miami Heat, LaMelo Ball is somehow on the Minnesota Timberwolves, and suitors are circling Kawhi Leonard for a potential deal. There might even be a Jaylen Brown trade before this week is over.
Read our long list of this summer’s best free agents. There’s plenty of intrigue around LeBron James, Jalen Duren, and Norman Powell as free agency gets underway, but that’s just the start of this year’s available talent.
