How the 2021 NBA trade deadline set up this summer’s free-agent market – ESPN Australia
Many top free agents, such as the newly traded Victor Oladipo, could be off the market before free agency even starts.
There were 17 trades on deadline day Thursday involving 45 different players, many of whom are set to be free agents this summer.
However, just how a slew of extensions signed this past offseason left the 2021 free-agent pool shallow, Thursday’s trades could have an equally adverse affect on this summer’s deals. For example, Victor Oladipo, who could’ve been one of the top free-agent targets for the few teams with cap space, could end up simply re-signing with his new team, the Miami Heat.
