It appears most of the high-wattage star power that might otherwise change teams—Bradley Beal, James Harden, Kyrie Irving and Zach LaVine—are all staying put. But that doesn’t mean the offseason isn’t compelling. Here are a few under-the-radar free agents worth keeping an eye on when June 30 rolls around.
T.J. Warren
It’s not every offseason where one of the 10 most talented free agents also happens to be in his prime and affordable for just about every team. Nobody is talking about T.J. Warren. On one hand this makes perfect sense because it’s been 546 days since he played in an NBA game. On the other hand, it’s astonishing, especially when you consider that he was “a full participant in on-court activity with his teammates” back in March when the tanking Pacers revealed that Warren’s season was over. He fully recovered from “consecutive stress fractures in his left foot” and there’s no physical reason to believe that at 29 years old he can’t get back on track as a potent three-level scorer.
