The 2022 NBA free agency period may not be defined by player movement, but it certainly has a lot of talent, especially in the backcourt. Of the 30 free agents presented in these rankings, 13 are guards.
Free agency is set to start on August 2, starting at 6 p.m. ET. Teams will be able to agree to contracts with free agents at that point, but can't make those deals official until August 6.
