There is about a month left in the 2021-22 NBA season and while the playoffs are on many teams’ minds right now, some teams are already starting to get a head start on the offseason and in particular, free agency.
Every NBA offseason, free agency always seems to steal the show and we should expect nothing less from this upcoming offseason’s free agency period.

James Harden, Kyrie Irving, Bradley Beal, Russell Westbrook, and John Wall are some of the notable current and past All-Stars that could be available in the offseason, but all four of them are expected to either opt into their current deals or re-sign with their current team.
