The NBA's free agency negotiation period officially kicked off at 6 p.m. ET on Friday, ahead of the league's annual moratorium period, which began Saturday at midnight. Deals can be agreed to during this period but can't be officially signed until July 6.

While this year's list of free agents doesn't contain as many superstars as those in years past, there could be plenty of player movement via trades, which we've seen in recent offseasons.

Among the big names who were free agents was Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet, who agreed to a three-year, $130 million deal with the Houston Rockets.
