The deals are piling up at an astonishing rate on the first day of NBA free agency. Or perhaps I’m the only one who’s surprised by all the action. Even though I knew it was possible for a bunch of deals to get done in a hurry, I thought at least 24 hours might go by while players and agents listened to pitches.
DeMar DeRozan’s deal to return to the Toronto Raptors was the first (and biggest from our perspective) to get announced. Obviously, I’m pleased after writing two posts on the importance of keeping him in Canada.
