Alright, it is officially CHAOS time. 40% of the players in the NBA are free agents this summer and the time has come for teams to go on a spending spree. There will be rumors flying, there will be contracts galore. If you’re like me (a Sixers fan) and you have to focus extensively on your front office not doing stupid shit, it’s hard to keep track of all the NBA Free Agency transactions.
Lo and behold…The Branded Sports NBA Free Agency Rumor Tracker.
Every rumor, every Woj Bomb, every Shams…well I don’t know what you call his tweets. But, we will keep track of EVERY SINGLE RUMOR in chronological order. LET’S GO:
