NBA free agents: Team-by-team lists for 2025 and 2026

Who are the NBA free agents to watch in 2025 and 2026? With so few teams having enough salary cap space and most big names tied to long-term extensions with their current teams, don't expect too many superstars to be on the move unless they're traded in the offseason.

Still, several top names could become free agents should they opt out their current deals. Keep an eye on what James Harden, Kyrie Irving and LeBron James do this summer.

Looking ahead to 2026, stars like Luka Doncic, Draymond Green and Damian Lillard hold player options that teams will be monitoring very closely.
