Share this: It isn’t uncommon for NBA superstars to leave in free agency. LeBron James left the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2010 to join the Miami Heat, and Kevin Durant said sayonara to the Oklahoma City Thunder in favor of the Golden State Warriors following the 2016 NBA playoffs. However, Durant’s new teammate and reigning two-time NBA MVP Stephen Curry doesn’t plan on joining that fraternity. The star point guard is eligible to be a free agent in July but isn’t contemplating leaving the Warriors, according to Tim Kawakami of The Mercury News. “Like I’ve said from Day 1 when I was first asked about free agency, this is a perfect place to play,” Curry told Kawakami. “Bay Area fans are amazing, our organization’s amazing, we’ve put

NBA Rumors: Celtics Interested In Signing Cavaliers Guard J.R. Smith
Share this: J.R. Smith played a key role in helping the Cleveland Cavaliers win their first NBA championship last season, but will he be taking his talents to an Eastern Conference rival this campaign? Smith is an unrestricted free agent with less than a month to go before opening night. Frank Isola of the New York Daily News reported Sunday that “several teams” are interested in Smith, and that the Boston Celtics are among them. However, Isola notes that the Celtics probably would need to free up additional salary cap space to sign the veteran shooting guard. Smith, 31, would improve Boston’s outside shooting, which has been one of its most glaring weaknesses over the last few seasons. The Celtics shot just 33.5 percent on 3-point
Kevin Durant Says He Doesn’t Plan On Re-Entering Free Agency Next Summer
by Zack Cox on Thu, Jul 7, 2016 at 5:39PM 2,019 The Golden State Warriors won the Kevin Durant sweepstakes earlier this week, beating out a slew of other suitors — including the Boston Celtics and Durant’s former team, the Oklahoma City Thunder — all hoping to sign the former NBA MVP. Durant’s contract with the Warriors reportedly is a two-year deal with a second-year player option, meaning we very well could see the 27-year-old superstar hit free agency again next summer. Speaking...
NBA Free Agency Rumors: Joakim Noah Likely Will Sign With Knicks For $18M Per Year
The New York Bulls, ahem, we mean Knicks, are making some big moves. The Knicks likely will sign Chicago Bulls center and soon-to-be free agent Joakim Noah to a deal worth around $ 18 million per year, sources told The Washington Post’s Tim Bontemps late Wednesday night. The projected length of the deal and exact dollar amounts have not been reported. While free agency doesn’t officially begin until Friday, other NBA teams also appear to believe Noah will join former teammate Derrick Rose in New York. Noah only played in 29 games last season due to injuries. He averaged 4.3 points and 8.8 rebounds per game during his shortened 2015-16...
NHL Free Agency Rumors: Eric Staal Drawing Interest From ‘3 Or 4 Teams’
Eric Staal is one of the better free agent centers available to sign July 1. He’s a tier below Steven Stamkos, of course, but the former Stanley Cup champ still would be a nice addition to a contending team. Sportsnet’s John Shannon reported Tuesday the amount of teams showing interest in Staal and where his expectations are at. Staal tallied 39 points (13 goals, 26 assists) in 83 games between the Carolina Hurricanes and New York Rangers last season, and he drove puck possession well with a 55.83 Corsi For percentage at even strength. He’d be a good second-line center for a team lacking depth and skill down the middle. Staal also could
Kevin Durant’s Free Agent Destination Unknown, But Options Are Aplenty
Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder just choked away a trip to the NBA Finals after losing to the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 of the Western Conference finals. The bigger storyline, though, is what’s going to happen in Durant’s impending free agency. He’ll be arguably the second-biggest name ever to truly hit the free agent market this summer, right behind LeBron James. Could the 27-year-old follow in James’ footsteps and take his talents elsewhere (like South Beach)? Before we begin, we need to lay a quick groundwork of basic facts.— The 2015-16 NBA salary cap was $ 70 million. It’s expected to hit $ 92 million beginnin...
