2024 NBA offseason - Most impactful trades, signings, more - ESPN

There are no trophies handed out for winning the NBA offseason.

However, the Philadelphia 76ers' signing of Paul George, the Mikal Bridges trade to the New York Knicks, the departure of Klay Thompson from Golden State and the Cleveland Cavaliers extending Donovan Mitchell could play a role in which team is crowned the next NBA champion in June 2025.

The offseason transactions — from orchestrated trades to free agent signings to contract extensions to adding draft picks — affect how each of the 30 teams will conduct its business on and off the court as the start of the 2024-25 season looms three months from now.

Let's look at each of the 30 teams' key offseason moves and what to keep an eye on leading up to training camp in late September.

Jump to a team:
ATL | BOS | BKN | CHA | CHI | CLE
DAL | DEN | DET | GS | HOU | IND
LAC | LAL | MEM | MIA | MIL | MIN
NO | NY | OKC | ORL | PHI | PHX
POR | SAC | SA | TOR | UTA | WAS

Offseason player transactions: Zaccharie Risacher (first round, signed a four-year, $57 million contract), Dyson Daniels (trade), Larry Nance Jr. (trade), EJ Liddell (trade), Cody Zeller (sign-and-trade; three years, $11 million), Vit Krejci (signed a four-year, $10 million contract), Keaton Wallace (two-way)

The impact transaction: The Dejounte Murray trade. The trade broke up the backcourt pairing of Murray and Trae Young, but also saw Atlanta get under the luxury tax and begin to build back its draft assets.

The Hawks still owe the San Antonio Spurs their own 2025 and 2027 unprotected firsts (the Spurs also have the right to swap firsts in 2026) but now have a valuable unprotected 2025 Los Angeles Lakers first. They also have the least favorable of New Orleans' or Milwaukee's first in 2027.
