NBA Rumors: Lakers Granted Permission to Meet With Warriors Assistant

With the NBA draft now past, the attention of the NBA world turns to free agency.

This year, the free-agency period will begin on July 30 at 6 p.m. ET; six hours sooner than originally scheduled. The window presents arguably one of the most entertaining portions of the NBA offseason.

Several of basketball's biggest stars, including Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson, will soon choose their next destinations. In the meantime, potential restricted free agents have until Monday to extend qualifying offers. June 29 remains the deadline for player and team options to be signed or declined.
