The NBA free agency period starts on Tuesday, and we know who will be available this summer.
Gilbert Arenas,
Baron Davis,
Elton Brand and
Corey Maggette have opted out of the final years of their respective contracts and have become free agents.
Shawn Marion,
Allen Iverson,
Ron Artest and Jermaine O'Neal decided not to opt out.
Below is a list of the top 10 unrestricted and top 10 restricted free agents based on total value, which means I'll take into account each player's production, age, upside and estimated asking price. Unrestricted free agents can sign with any team that makes them an offer. Restricted free agents can sign offer sheets from other teams, but their current team has the right to match that offer, which is usually the case.
