The start of the 2018-19 season is still almost seventh months away, but the season will be shaped by what happens in the next month.
The deadline for the NBA draft early entry closed Sunday night, but many of the players who put their names in have until May 30 to withdraw without penalty. Those decisions will have a HUGE impact on the next season.
At the same time, the free agent market is in full swing as hundreds of players will be transferring to new schools. Those who do so under the old transfer rules will have to sit out a season, but dozens are the so-called grad transfers, who will be able to play immediately.
