7:41pm, 2 June 2025【Basketball】

The free market in the NBA every offseason is a highly anticipated existence, because major teams are going to usher in an arms race at this stage. Whether it is seeking the core to catch big fish or actively looking for excellent puzzle players, the free market is a good choice. The free market this year is also very lively, and many big-name stars have ushered in free agents. The following seven people have a great influence. James Harden is likely to stay in the team, and Turner, Randall and others are the hottest players that each team is rushing to.

James

The appearance figure in the league today, although he is 40 years old, he is still very strong and this year he is the All-Star + Best Second Team player. He can still deliver gorgeous data per game of 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists in the regular season, and his performance is quite outstanding. He has the player option in hand and his salary next year is $52.62 million. The team has Doncic, so James is likely to stay in the team.

Harden

The Clippers also performed well this year, and they were eliminated in seven games in the playoffs with the Nuggets. Harden ushered in an explosion. He proved himself this year, scoring gorgeous data per game of 22.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 8.7 assists. He also proved his value with practical actions. Harden also has the option of a player. He is at the age of 35 and his peak is not long, so it is the best choice to jump out of the contract to sign a contract of 2-3 years, and he is also highly likely to stay in the team.

Irving's prospects are quite confusing. As a super point guard, 32-year-old Irving is still in his peak period. He also averaged 24.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game this year. He held the player options in his hand and was originally a maximum-paid player without any suspense. But he suffered a major injury from a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. So whether you can get a maximum salary contract and whether you stay with the Mavericks is still unknown.

Randall

Timberwolves once again entered the Western Conference Finals, and the former playoff softie Randall ushered in an explosion this year. Randall is also in the contract year and at the age of 30, he will undoubtedly seek a long contract. He only averaged 18 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists per game in the regular season, and was considered hopeless for a big contract. However, he averaged 22 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game in the playoffs, and his shooting percentage was as high as 50%. This performance made him a hot spot in the market and there would be no shortage of big contracts. Reed was the sixth best man in the league last year and has also continued his outstanding performance this year. He averaged 14.5 points, 6 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game in the regular season, and his three-point shooting percentage was 38%. He averaged 10 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game in the playoffs, and his three-point shooting percentage was 40%. As a space power forward, it is very popular in this era. Reed has never received a big contract, so this year he will definitely test the free market and hit an annual salary of 20 million yuan. The Pacers made it to the finals, and the Turner, who was on the trading shelves every year, became a complete free agent this year. Turner averaged 15 points and 5 rebounds per game in the playoffs, with a 50% shooting percentage and 40% three-point shooting percentage, and is at the peak of 29 years old. This is the type of puzzle that all teams want. Turner will be a hot topic whether the Pacers win the championship or not.

Beasley's salary this year is only $6 million, and he is also betting right. He has delivered gorgeous data per game of 16.3 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists with the Pistons, with a three-point shooting percentage of up to 41.6%. As a substitute, he scored more than 300 three-pointers, and there is no suspense that the major teams will compete for, and the big contract is stable.
