NBA free agency season is finally here and, while the moratorium period still runs until July 6, some blockbuster deals have already been announced. The most high-profile free agents this offseason include Kevin Durant, who is coming back from an Achilles injury, Kyrie Irving, and Jimmy Butler, with a host of other players looking to secure the bag ahead of the 2019-20 NBA season.
