NBA Free Agency
The Los Angeles Clippers don't need to panic. They resigned Blake Griffin to a five-year deal worth $173 million. He averaged 21.6 PPG 8.1 RPG and 4.9 APG last season with the Clippers.
With Blake staying, they will be competitive in the west every single season. They actually got younger because of the Chris Paul trade.
The Philadelphia 76ers signed J.J. Reddick to a one-year deal worth $23 million. He averaged 15 PPG last season with the Clippers. The 76ers will also sign Amir Johnson to a one-year deal worth $11 million. He averaged 6.5 PPG and 4.6 RPG last season with the Celtics. It is obvious that the 76ers want to make the playoffs in the 2017-2018 season.
Two time NBA Champion Steph Curry signed a max contract with the Golden State Warriors. It was five-years worth $201 million. He averaged 25.3 PPG 4.5 RPG and 6.6 APG last season with the Warriors. Curry has also won two MVP's. Durant is also going to get a big contract at some point which means Klay Thompson or Draymond Green won't be in a Warriors uniform for much longer.
Obviously I believe they all will play together in the 2017-2018 season, but after that it is very questionable what will happen.
Joe Ingles signed a four-year deal worth $52 million to stay with the Utah Jazz. Ingles averaged 7.1 PPG 3.2 RPG and 2.7 APG last season with the Jazz.
Jeff Teague signed a three-year deal worth $57 million to go to the Minnesota Timberwolves. He averaged 15.3 PPG 4 RPG and 7.8 APG with the Pacers last season. Minnesota's playoffs chances are getting better.
The Deron Williams experiment failed in Cleveland last season, so the Cavaliers signed Jose Calderon to a one-year deal worth $2.3 million. Calderon averaged 3.6 PPG 1.8 RPG and 2.1 APG last season with the Hawks.
Andre Iguodala is heading back to Golden State on a three-year deal worth $48 million. He was the 2015 finals MVP with the Warriors. He averaged 7.6 PPG 4 RPG and 3.4 APG last season with Golden State.
Michael Carter-Williams signed a one-year deal worth $2.7 million with the Charlotte Hornets. He averaged 6.6 PPG 3.4 RPG and 2.5 APG last season with the Bulls.
Patty Mills is staying with the San Antonio Spurs on a four-year deal worth $50 million. He averaged 9.5 PPG and 3.5 APG with the Spurs last season.
Jrue Holiday is staying with the New Orleans Pelicans on a five-year deal worth $126 million. He averaged 15.4 PPG and 7.3 APG last season with the Pelicans.
