The NBA Free Agency period is anything but free. This was indicative by the first deal agreed to between the Los Angeles Lakers and former Cleveland Cavaliers center Timofey Mozgov on a four-year, $64 million deal, according to The Vertical‘s Adrian Wojnarowski.
One of the biggest winners of the day was Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley, who agreed to re-sign with the Grizzlies on a five-year, $153 million that will annually pay out more than $30 million, according to USA Today‘s Sam Amick. That makes Conley the third player to make $30 million in a single season, joining Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan.
