In the summer of 2019, the NBA saw 207 players become free agents, and 13 teams used cap space to make significant additions. There were also several superstar trades, including multiple via sign-and-trade. To put it simply: It was one of the most exciting NBA offseasons the league has ever seen.
In Hollywood terms, if the summer of 2019 was a summer of blockbusters, 2020 might be more of a summer for indie flicks. There are only 150 potential free agents (on the high side before option decisions) this summer. That group is also very light on stars.
