NBA free agency opened on Monday, and more than 50 deals were made before the clock struck midnight, including most of the top names expected to change teams, if not all of them. Plenty of transactions are left to be made, but here we highlight the biggest winners and losers from the wild first day of free agency.
WINNERS
The Miami Heat's team president did the bulk of his impressive work in the first 39 minutes after free agency opened at 6 p.m. ET on Monday. In that span, Riley acquired Kyle Lowry from the Toronto Raptors, extended Jimmy Butler's maximum contract and re-signed sharpshooter Duncan Robinson, remolding a roster he hopes will deliver his 11th championship in almost 50 years as a player, coach and executive.
