Well, there are less than 72 hours until the draft. We’ve all waited a long time to say that. The NBA’s transaction moratorium lifts today. And all things considered, this will be one of the busiest stretches in league history, with teams staring down roster changes via Wednesday’s draft and free agency, which officially begins Friday. So brace yourself for a flurry of trades and transactional news, with several big-name players potentially on the move. It seems like stating the obvious at this point, but the NBA landscape may look much different a week from now.
As things stand on Monday morning, Anthony Edwards and James Wiseman appear likely to be the first two players off the board—that much, at least from my standpoint, feels clear.
